Red Bull driver Max Verstappen has no preference over his team-mate next year.
Verstappen has refused to get involved in Red Bull’s decision to pick him a team-mate.
Three drivers currently under contract with the Austrian team, Daniil Kvyat, Alex Albon and Pierre Gasly, were all under consideration.
"It's up to them [Red Bull's hierarchy]. I'm not the deciding factor,” Verstappen said ahead of this weekend’s Russian Grand Prix. "I also don't want to be at the end of the day, because I don't mind who is sitting next to me. They are the bosses, so they decide. I'm not a deciding factor in that."
