A 22-year-old Daniel Ricciardo made his full F1 race debut at the British Grand Prix in 2011, the Aussie replacing Narain Karthikeyan at the minnow Hispania Racing outfit.
A pure product of Red Bull's young driver programme, Ricciardo had previously taken part in several Friday morning practice sessions with Toro Rosso.
It was a laborious start for the future star, but one that still impressed Red Bull enough to entrust their protégé with a racing seat at the Faenza-based squad for 2012.
The rest, as they say, is history…
