Daniil Kvyat has called on Red Bull to make a decision regarding his future soon. The Russian joined Toro Rosso, Red Bull's junior team in 2014, spending one season there before being promoted to the senior team for the start of the 2015 season.
However, after the 2016 Russian Grand Prix, he was demoted back down to Toro Rosso with Max Verstappen taking up his spot. 2018 will be the 23-year-old's fifth year in the sport, but it is not yet clear if he will be kept by Red Bull.
The futures of both Kvyat and Carlos Sainz are unclear. Red Bull has already said that Sainz would be allowed to leave for the right price, which would bring in Pierre Gasly who currently competes in Super Formula. Kvyat is confident that he will remain with the team for next season.
"I think our common trust is going back to a good level so I don't see any reason why I wouldn't want to collaborate," Kvyat said. "But I need an answer also, if those are his plans I need an answer as soon as possible because obviously it is getting to the part of the season that you want to know your future.
"It would be great to know as soon as possible but I don't see any reason why we wouldn't want to collaborate together. I'm not a guy to give any deadlines, it is in their hands so why would I force it. But they know the better you are settled with your future, the more you can stay focused on your actual job."
"They know everything about me and we already had some talks before, everyone is happy, I am happy with them, I think they're happy with me so I don't see any reason why we wouldn't want to collaborate. I want to do my job.
"Red Bull have been taking care of me for the last seven, eight years. Whatever Dr Marko will decide, I will take the answer. I don't see any reason why not to [stay with the Red Bull family]. You have to be patient. I want to give my best to Toro Rosso because I think they deserve more from me."

To be honest I feel that he has had his change. Give another driver a change.
