Canadian Jacques Villeneuve will race for BMW [Images] Sauber next year, the Formula One team confirmed on Thursday.

"It's now official. Jacques Villeneuve will line up alongside Nick Heidfeld [Images] for the BMW Sauber F1 team in 2006," a statement said.

The former champion's place at the team had been the subject of much speculation in recent months after BMW bought Swiss-based Sauber.

Villeneuve has a year remaining on his contract with Sauber but media speculation had linked several other drivers, including McLaren's Austrian tester Alexander Wurz, to the coveted drive.
