SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Mexican driver Sergio Perez will stay at Force India next season in an unchanged line-up with Frenchman Esteban Ocon, the Formula One team said ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday. The Mercedes-backed 20-year-old joined Perez at Force India at the start of this season. "Staying with Sahara Force India was always my priority," said Perez, who had been linked with other teams including Renault who have now opted for Spaniard Carlos Sainz. With Perez confirmed at Force India and Sainz at Renault, the focus now shifts to Felipe Massa and his future at Williams. The 22-year-old would have been favourite to land the seat at Mercedes-powered Force India had Perez moved on.
