Toyota-powered Williams have lost Austrian Alex Wurz, who retired after the penultimate race of the season in China, and need at least one experienced driver.
The options include Toyota-backed Japanese Kazuki Nakajima, who made his race debut at Interlagos to plaudits.
Italian Vitantonio Liuzzi, released by Toro Rosso to make way for France's four-times ChampCar champion Sebastien Bourdais, could be another possibility.
It is harder to see where Ralf Schumacher could end up, even if the German says he will be around next year.
Spyker have a vacancy but, even with billionaire Indian owner Vijay Mallya, will not want to pay much.
"I have spoken to many drivers, I have told them that they are all paid very highly and I'm not so sure that we can afford it just yet," Mallya told Reuters. "But there is no harm in having conversations and seeing where we go.
"I am very happy with (Germany's) Adrian Sutil and I've told (team boss) Colin (Kolles) that we need to keep him."
