van der Garde out at Caterham?

Giedo van der Garde's future at Caterham is under yet more speculation after his sponsors' logos have been removed from the teams website.

The Dutchman is personally sponsored by McGregor, Beelen.nl and Regus, which is thought to bring between £5-7million to the Malaysian-backed squad and he was widely tipped in December to remain within the outfit for 2014.

However since then, rumours have been circulating that van der Garde may be replaced by either Kamui Kobayashi or Marcus Ericsson, who are thought to have more than double the 28 year-old's finances between them, though this is yet to be confirmed.

A spokesperson told F1Today.net that he was "unable to comment" on the removal of Giedo's logos, adding further to the speculation. Van der Garde was beaten in the Drivers' Championship by team-mate Charles Pic, however the Dutchman's pace over Pic was noticeable through the season.

No official statement has been released by the team regarding their driver line-up, only that it would be "announced in due course".

Caterham are set to unveil the CT-04 prior to the first test at Jerez on the 28th.
