German driver Nico Hulkenberg will return to Force India in 2014 after signing a multi-year deal, according to reports.
According to the BBC, Force India, who ran Paul Di Resta and Adrian Sutil this year, said they would name the second driver in due course.
Hulkenberg said that he knows this team and can see their determination, adding that they all share the same hunger for success.
Hulkenberg had a very strong second half to his season, scoring points in six of the final eight races, the report said.
That run included an impressive drive to fifth position at Monza, Italy, and a fourth in Korea the following month, the report added.
It was that form which linked the German with a drive at Lotus, who finished fourth in the constructors' championship, the report further said.
