Red Bull looks set to wait to finalise the 2019 driver lineup for Toro Rosso any time soon. Earlier, it was suggested that the energy drink company could be set to announce Daniil Kvyat and Pascal Wehrlein as its all-new drivers for Toro Rosso next year. But Dr Helmut Marko says the plan is only to announce one driver next weekend at Sochi. Now, it seems that that driver will probably be Russian driver Kvyat. “We are currently planning to announce one driver in Sochi. It’s important to get one driver contract done quickly. There is not such a hurry to fill the other cockpit. We can even wait until winter testing,” Dr Marko added. According to a Russian newspaper, it is believed Red Bull is going to wait for British teenager Daniel Ticktum [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Ticktum]. Toro Rosso [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/AP-1W2MDGQ212111_news-300x206.jpg]Daniel Ticktum The 19-year-old Briton is a top driver in European Formula 3, but even if he wins that title, he will not have the required points to secure a F1 super license. So ‘plan B’ is reportedly the Asian F3 winter series, where Ticktum could secure the remaining FIA license points he needs. In Singapore, sources at Red Bull revealed that negotiations are underway to get Ticktum a competitive car for those races. There are several drivers who are in the running for the vacant Toro Rosso seat. Aside from Ticktum and Kvyat, other names that popped up include, Sebastien Buemi, Jean-Eric Vergne and Pascal Wehrlein [https://www.essentiallysports.com/toro-rosso-eyeing-ex-mercedes-protege/]. Wehrlein’s name cropped up when he announced that he was severing ties with Mercedes. In the case of Buemi and Vergne, JEV is committed to Techeetah Formula E and Buemi has signed up with Nissan Formula E. Toro Rosso [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/image16x9.img_.1536.high_-5-1-300x169.jpg]Toro Rosso But for now, the Faenza-based team will be focused on closing out 2018 on a high note. Their star driver, Pierre Gasly will be moving up to Red Bull, but teammate Brendon Hartley’s future is a mystery. A lot of signs point to the Kiwi not retaining his seat for 2019. But, the Red Bull family are capable of anything.

<h2><strong>Toro Rosso: Latest News, Results, Drivers and Car Updates</strong></h2>
The Toro Rosso F1 team are a year younger than sister team Red Bull. Toro Rosso was largely seen as a feeder team for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/">Red Bull</a>. The team were born from the ashes of the Minardi team. When Minardi boss, Paul Stoddart sold his remaining assets to Red Bull?s Dietrich Mateschitz, Toro Rosso was the result.

A number of their former drivers have been promoted to Red Bull, namely, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/">Sebastian Vettel</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-ricciardo/">Daniel Ricciardo</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/max-verstappen/">Max Verstappen</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-kvyat/">Daniil Kvyat</a>, and now <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pierre-gasly/">Pierre Gasly</a>.

Their driver line-up for 2019 was Russian driver Daniil Kvyat and Thai driver <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-albon/">Alexander Albon</a>.

The team changed the name to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/alphatauri/">AlphaTauri</a> after the 2019 season.
<h2>Best of Toro Rosso</h2>

<h2><strong>On-track Achievements</strong></h2>
The team scored points in their first season, with Vitantonio Liuzzi finishing eighth in USA. Their big break came in 2008 at the Italian Grand Prix.

Sebastian Vettel had stunned many when he nabbed pole position at a damp Monza circuit. He would later convert that into a win, again in the damp conditions. In the process, he broke the record for the youngest pole-sitter and youngest race winner.

To this day, his pole-position record still stands, despite Max Verstappen?s efforts. It also remains as Toro Rosso?s only win in their F1 career. That year, they also had a career-best finish of sixth in the constructor?s championship.

<h2><strong>Toro Rosso?s Sponsors</strong></h2>
Toro Rosso largely share sponsors with Red Bull. For the sake of clarity, their title sponsor is Red Bull, for obvious reasons. Other sponsors include Pirelli, Honda, Siemens, and Casio. On October 19th, 2018, American fast-food giant KFC signed on as a sponsor.

Like sister team Red Bull, Toro Rosso also support Wings for Life Charity.
