Romain Grosjean will keep his race seat at Lotus for next year.

Lotus have confirmed that Romain Grosjean will have a drive with the team in Formula 1 next season.

The Frenchman joins Kimi Raikkonen in the 2013, the same lineup as in 2012.

The 26-year-old told Autosport.com: "It's fantastic for me to be continuing with Lotus for 2013. It's superb to have the support of everyone at Enstone. I'm really looking forward to rewarding their faith when we take to the track in Australia.

"I learnt a lot in my first full season in Formula 1 and my aim is to put these lessons into practice with stronger and more consistent performance on track next year.

"There are a lot of exciting developments occurring behind the scenes at Enstone and I am very excited with the prospect of [next year's car]."

Grosjean finished eighth in the drivers' standings in 2012.
