Kvyat return set for Sochi announcement
Sep.15 - Daniil Kvyat looks to have secured his return to formula one.
The Russian's career has been a rollercoaster in recent years, as he debuted for Toro Rosso, got a swift promotion to Red Bull, was demoted back to Toro Rosso and then ousted altogether.
He is currently a Ferrari simulator driver.
But it appears that Red Bull is giving him yet another chance, with 24-year-old Kvyat set to return to Toro Rosso to replace Pierre Gasly.
"He will drive for Toro Rosso next year. Contract signed," former F1 driver Robert Doornbos told Ziggo Sport Totaal.
Another racing driver, Nick de Vries, also told the Dutch broadcaster: "The contracts were signed on Saturday at Monza. I was there all weekend."
Indeed, Red Bull's Dr Helmut Marko admitted in Singapore that a driver announcement is scheduled for the forthcoming Russian grand prix.
Asked if it will be Kvyat, Robert Kubica or Antonio Giovinazzi, he told Sky Italia: "One of them. I'll tell you at Sochi."

Red Bull/Toro Rosso, essentially the imperious Helmut Marco, is giving HIMSELF another chance. He bullies drivers around like they were his errand boys and now, facing the music, has to eat the crow. Regardless of how good or not good a driver Kvyat is I am delighted to see Marco and Horner having to walk back their haughty opinions.
And I am neither first nor the only one to think that: https://jalopnik.com/toro-rosso-looks-like-theyre-going-to-swallow-their-pri-1829080837
