Kvyat needs to get his confidence back - Helmut Marko

Dr Helmut Marko played down talk of Daniil Kvyat being dropped by Red Bull.

Despite finishing on the podium in China at the start of the year, the Russian was demoted to Red Bull's junior team, Toro Rosso, after his home race and has struggled to find form since.

But Red Bull motorsport advisor Dr. Marko, has said that Kyvat just needs to regain his confidence.

"Kvyat only needs one or two good races to get his self confidence back," he told Germany's motorsport-magazin.com. "But he does have confidence. At the last race at Hockenheim, Toro Rosso was generally poorly unprepared with its new parts."

  • A rather positive comment by Marko. I am a bit surprised.

    I do hope Kvat manages to get up to speed again this year.
    He is not as bad as the recent results show.
