With Trident stating that it is 'waiting for important answers' from the management of Rigon with regards to financial issues, 23-year-old Gonzalez will make his GP2 Main Series debut alongside Mexican Ricardo Teixeira this weekend, after driving in the Asia Series over the winter months.

With Rigon looking to retake his position in one of the team's cars should the current dispute be solved, the team has explained that it invested in the driver with total confidence for the first half of the 2009 season and soon looking to renew the contract with the 22-year-old, who is yet to score his first points of the season.
