It has become a new era for Red Bull as Sebastian Vettel heads to Ferrari to partner Kimi Raikkonen for 2015. This came as quite a shock, especially as Vettel has had incredible success within the team, having won 4 World Championship titles with them.
Taking Vettel's place and partnering Daniel Ricciardo will be Daniil Kvyat, the young Russian Rookie who debuted in F1 with the Scuderia Toro Rosso team. Some may think that these are big boots to fill for Kvyat, but he proved himself in his debut season and even brought in a total of 8 points for the team. He's also a GP3 World Champion.
Of course, with one move in F1, the grid tends to shake up.. And it left an empty seat at Toro Rosso beside the newly signed Max Verstappen. Driving beside him will be young Carlos Sainz, who has opted to drop the "Jr." from his name upon entering F1. Carlos is keen to prove his skills, having took the 2014 Formula Renault 3.5 Championship.
More to come, as the 2015 season approaches.
