Had doubts as to who would replace Pierre Gasly in the GP of the united States. The appointment of Austin match with another quote from Super Formula where the French pilot runs, and thus we will lose the F1 to race in the other category. The seat left by Carlos Sainz, who you know that will be put up for the first time in the car of Renault in the GP of Austin, will be replaced by Russian Daniil Kvyat who had come down for two Great Prizes for up to Gasly and that cogiese experience.
The doubts of the pilot that would replace Gasly has already been cleared thanks to an official announcement that became Toro Rosso, saying that the pilot has been chosen Brendon Hartley. The pilot new zealand will be the companion to the Russian to complete the alignment of Toro Rosso in the race american. The election has been a little unexpected, and perhaps the name of Brendon wasn’t in the pools of some, the rumors pointed to the other drivers, it has even come to the place some old acquaintances that could get in the Toro Rosso for this GP, but finally has not been well…
Brendon Hartley is not new to this, although it has passed quite unnoticed. Since was the reserve driver of Red Bull during the seasons 2009 and 2010, but never got to make his debut in F1 until now. The names that seemed better options that Hartley were Sebastien Buemi and Sean Gelael, especially this last one that we have seen uploaded to the Toro Rosso in some sessions. Even some rumors pointed to things a little crazy, as Robert Kubica, who without doubt for me, it would be nice to see you again gone up to an F1 overcoming all the difficulties, but it is complicated…
By the way, a Robert Kubica who has recently completed some tests with Williams quite satisfactory. You already know that it went back up to a F1 Renault to do a few tests this year and now he does it with Williams. It seems that Williams wants to change his alignment and the Polish pilot is among the options. That seems not to have liked to Felipe Massa who has criticized a change of riders for the team of Grove, claiming that it could be a big risk for them.
