Scottish Formula 1 driver Paul Di Resta will not race with Force India next season.

The team has chosen to replace the 27-year-old with Mexican Sergio Perez who has made the switch from McLaren.

Nico Hulkenburg takes the other Force India seat after a year away at Sauber.

Force India's decision potentially leaves Di Resta without a spot on the F1 grid next season with most driver lineups finalized for 2014.

Di Resta's relative lack of sponsorship is believed to have contributed to Force India's decision as Perez brings in more revenue from Mexican sponsors.

Di Resta finished 12th in the 2013 drivers' standings, outscoring team-mate Adrian Sutil by 19 points.
