Daniel Ricciardo could replace Narain Karthikeyan from the Grand Prix of Great Britain [confirmed]


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.

Shortly after the mid-point of the race, an accident between Jan Charouz and Anton Nebylitskiy has caused the exit of the safety car.
To the remprenderse race, Alexander Rossi has ahead of Albert Costa, joining this long in the Mirabeau curve, but the American pilot has come out of the track in Uptown of the circuit, which has returned the fourth position at the expense and has returned to lead a way out of the safety car, 8 minutes, the race has become to start.
Despite the emotions that could give us this situation, the race has followed the same script that so far, with cars separating between them. In the end, the positions have not changed, and only an accident between Cesar Ramos and Sergio Canamasas in the penultimate round has brought excitement, because Wickens has hooked to Ricciardo to passing through the area.
The Canadian pilot has been able to pass on the side of the rugged car of the Catalan pilot, and has tried to attack to the Australian Red Bull-backed, but it has been impossible. In the end, emotion to the last curve but the positions have not changed, and Championship tightens even more than I was before Monaco.

Daniel Ricciardo will miss the first event of the Formula Renault 3.5 at Motorland Aragón

Daniel Ricciardo will miss the first event of the Formula Renault 3.5, Motorland Aragon. The reason is that in that same weekend, the first of the World Series, coincides with the Grand Prize of China of formula one, where Ricciardo held a session of free practice.
She is clear, in this way, therefore, that the priority of the pilot Australian in the face of the 2011 season is formula one. Considers that the opportunity to test the Toro Rosso and try if same situation real Grand Prix training him well worth a week-end of the World Series.
Unfortunately, I can not be in the first race of the Formula Renault 3.5 at Spain. It's great to be able to have more time in formula one and I am very grateful for the opportunity, but that means that I'll have to work harder to earn the title of the Formula Renault 3.5 this year!
Daniel Ricciardo, who in 2010 was second in the Championship, and to compete in 2011 with the ISR team, is one of the Favorites this year, but that more. It is rumored that you to replace Ricciardo in the Motorland, could leave some other pilot of Red Bull, as Jean Eric Vergne program.

Daniel Ricciardo will have their chance with Toro Rosso at Jerez

It is increasingly clear that Red Bull wants 2011 is the year of transition for Daniel Ricciardo to Formula 1. He was with the Red Bull in Abu Dhabi at end of season, it was confirmed as third Toro Rosso driver during the season, with appearances on track during the Grand Prix, Friday and now even "steal" time at Sepang in the second pre-season training.


On the first day of the test, same morning Ricciardo will be behind the wheel of the new Toro Rosso STR6 during the morning session. The damages and that you "steal" time will be "ours" Jaime Alguersuari. Moment, sure that both Sebastien Buemi and Jaime are convinced of his talent, but I do not have them all with me. I am among those who think that one of the two does not end the season and gives your site to Ricciardo.
