Kvyat hopes Red Bull can challenge Mercedes this year
Daniil Kvyat has warned Mercedes that Red Bull are ready to mount a challenge for race wins this season, after his podium in the Chinese Grand Prix.
The Russian, along with team-mate Daniel Ricciardo, was outstanding in China on his way to third prompting the suggestion they could challenge Mercedes and Ferrari for wins.
The team plan a major upgrade in Canada, and Kvyat is excited for the future.
"Mercedes is still a bit of a step ahead but with the developments in the future races, probably around Canada, we can make a bit of a step forward," he said.
"In some circumstances, we can be quite a big challenge to them.
"It was quite an encouraging race. I thought we were close in our pace to Ferrari.
"We are consistently third-fastest team on the track and with a bit of development in the future we can give a fight to these guys even a bit more.
"It's all looking quite promising for the future."
