Surprising news the world of formula one is full. Today we are told that Daniel Ricciardo could replace Narain Karthikeyan from Grand Prix of Great Britain. Although where I say "could replace", it seems that it would have to say "replace", since on that rumored, the negotiations will be already very advanced, yet determined.
That Ricciardo has surprised all the world is no longer anything new, and Toro Rosso le has been testing this season during the Friday, to give him more experience, and has continued earning good results comparable to those of Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari, with more experience in formula 1 he. Red Bull had hoped that Daniel could debut this year at Toro Rosso.
But they found something not expected, and that the two pilots of the Red Bull junior team is paying good level. Sebastien Buemi has been perhaps more constant but Jaime Alguersuari has had some touches of brilliance this season, and their flyers seemed already secure, prior to this news. Ricciardo was left without debuting this year... or not.
Toro Rosso would have negotiated with Hispania Racing F1 Team for the Australian pilot's debut as the next week in formula one, taking the place of Karthikeyan until end of season. There would be an exception to all this, and is that Karthikeyan would drive for the Grand Prize of the India, as it must stipulate the contract with Tata.
In principle, it seems that Red Bull wants to find out how competitive can be Ricciardo, and her ideas with Liuzzi, which was already in Toro Rosso in his day. The contract would be until the end of the year, and for 2012, Ricciardo would be transferred to Toro Rosso and Red Bull, if their results were very good, or of his "rivals" it were not for nothing. You will have to wait to see if it is confirmed officially.
Update: Hispania Racing F1 Team has confirmed what was already supposed to; Daniel Ricciardo will make his debut with them in the formula for the award of Great Britain next week.
