Kvyat wants quick clarity from Red Bull over future

Published on 21 Jul 2017 15:43

By: Fergal Walsh

Daniil Kvyat has called on Red Bull to make a decision regarding his future soon. The Russian joined Toro Rosso, Red Bull's junior team in 2014, spending one season there before being promoted to the senior team for the start of the 2015 season.

However, after the 2016 Russian Grand Prix, he was demoted back down to Toro Rosso with Max Verstappen taking up his spot. 2018 will be the 23-year-old's fifth year in the sport, but it is not yet clear if he will be kept by Red Bull.

The futures of both Kvyat and Carlos Sainz are unclear. Red Bull has already said that Sainz would be allowed to leave for the right price, which would bring in Pierre Gasly who currently competes in Super Formula. Kvyat is confident that he will remain with the team for next season.

"I think our common trust is going back to a good level so I don't see any reason why I wouldn't want to collaborate," Kvyat said. "But I need an answer also, if those are his plans I need an answer as soon as possible because obviously it is getting to the part of the season that you want to know your future.

"It would be great to know as soon as possible but I don't see any reason why we wouldn't want to collaborate together. I'm not a guy to give any deadlines, it is in their hands so why would I force it. But they know the better you are settled with your future, the more you can stay focused on your actual job."

"They know everything about me and we already had some talks before, everyone is happy, I am happy with them, I think they're happy with me so I don't see any reason why we wouldn't want to collaborate. I want to do my job.

"Red Bull have been taking care of me for the last seven, eight years. Whatever Dr Marko will decide, I will take the answer. I don't see any reason why not to [stay with the Red Bull family]. You have to be patient. I want to give my best to Toro Rosso because I think they deserve more from me."

To be honest I feel that he has had his change. Give another driver a change.

Alot of mistakes, he will be lucky to keep the seat, but hopefully he will.

At one point while he was at Red Bull, I found him to be quite underrated. But for the most part over the last 18 months he's become reckless and I'd even say regressed as a driver. If I were him, I'd sign the first f1 contract put in front of me - no matter the team, because it's not a given that he will be in Formula 1 next year. I could see him coming back if one or two new teams enter in 2019

He's never really recovered from his demotion...

It's almost impossible to understand (for us) his level of competence. If you take him at face value then you would have to say he's average at best and there are many other above average young drivers out there who would do a better job. However, he clings to his seat with all the tenacity of someone that brings $$$ to the team. I may be wrong but how else has he managed to hang on? Almost every race brings more misery..
