Following praise from his Toro Rosso boss Franz Tost, Russian F1 rookie Daniil Kvyat has now received a glowing endorsement from Infiniti Red Bull Racing team principal Christian Horner who has described the 20 year old's performances as 'sensational'. Kvyat has scored six point's so far this season. Horner has been impressed at how quickly the Russian has adapted to Formula One following his jump from the GP3 Series to Formula One.

Horner has also praised the talent coming through the Red Bull young driver programme and has been impressed with Carlos Sainz Jnr, Alex Lynn and Pierre Gasly who are making their way up the motor racing ranks with the help of Red Bull.

The current driver line-up at Infiniti Red Bull Racing, the reigning world champions, Sebastian Vettel and Daniel Ricciardo came through the young driver programme and Vettel and the Milton Keynes based outfit have done a fantastic job as Vettel and the team have won four consecutive drivers and constructors Formula One championships.

Daniel Ricciardo has also been extremely impressive during his debut season with the Red Bull senior team having taken two Grand Prix victories including last time out at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Ricciardo went into the Formula One Summer break in third place in the championship on 131 point's.

Following his impressive start for Red Bull, Ricciardo is 43 point's ahead of reigning world champion and team mate Sebastian Vettel.
