It was only two years ago that Daniil Kvyat made his F1 debut driving for Toro Rosso at the tender age of 19. Promoted straight from GP3 where he had impressively secured the title a year earlier, Kvyat impressed on debut in Australia scoring two points in ninth place following Daniel Ricciardo's exclusion. Kvyat's last race for the team (pictured) came in Abu Dhabi in 2014, where he retired after just 14 laps but was already aware he would be promoted to Red Bull the following season.
