Bruno Senna's management has denied reports he could switch to Toro Rosso for 2010.

Rumours about the move were started when it became apparent that his current team Campos was still looking for investors in order to compete in the 2010 season. To add to the speculation, a race seat at Toro Rosso is still theoretically open as Jaime Alguersuari hasn't been officially confirmed as its second driver yet.

However, those close to Senna have "vehemently denied" the reports and on Tuesday team boss Adrian Campos said his outfit would be at the first race in Bahrain. It has a fully developed car but it is not yet clear whether it has paid its chassis builder Dallara in full.

F1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone has cast further doubt over the team's future, after he reiterated his belief that some teams may not make the grid for the season opener on March 14.
