SEASON WRAP
Pierre Gasly managed to comprehensively beat Brendan Hartley in the first full F1 season for both drivers. In typically ruthless Red Bull fashion the likeable Kiwi has been axed from Torro Rosso while Gasly has been given the opportunity to drive alongside Max Verstappen at Red Bull. Tough – yes. But it’s a formula that has worked well for Red Bull to date.
It will be intriguing indeed to see how Gasly manages to acquit himself against Verstappen next year. With both Torro Rosso drivers only finishing 11 races together the reliability of the Honda engine is a huge unknown for both RBR and their sister team in 2019.
As for Torro Rosso, Daniel Kvyat returns to F1 in 2019 to race alongside rookie Alexander Albon.
