Toro Rosso team chief Franz Tost is hopeful that sacked driver Daniil Kvyat caꦚn secure a Formula 1 role in the near fu𝓡ture, saying the Russian “deserves” to be on the grid.

Kvyat was dropped twice through 2017 by Toro Rosso due to a lack of performance, with h🦩is final appearance coming at the😼 United States Grand Prix before Brendon Hartley took his seat for the remaining three races of the season.

Kvyat was 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:dismissed from the Red Bull motorsport program𒁃me altogether after spending the majority of his racing career under its umbrella, and is now consider🔯ing his options for 2018.

, Tost spoke warmly of Kvyat’s talent and ability, admitting that reliability issues may have contributed to his dip in pe൩rformance and eventual sacking.

“I am still convinced that Daniil has a very high natural speed. He was sometime🅺s eve🀅n faster than Daniel Riccardo,” Tost said.

“But somehow last year and this year he couldn’t show the potential that is within him. He was involved in ⛄many incidents, but in his defenc🎉e I also have to say that he had many reliability issues and that didn’t help build up confidence.

“Being the victim of too many incidents k💃illed the performance he would have been able to show.

“Maybe a short break – to get organized again – and probably we will see Daniil bac♌k at his usual performance level with another ꦑteam.”

Asked what Kvyat’s key problem had been, Tost sa🌟id the Russian was often “too aggressive” at th🐓e start of a race.

“The first corner was his weak point. He wanted too much in t𒈔he first hundred metres – success by any means,” Tost said.

“That puts you under pressure – unnecessary pressure – and that 📖never works.

“I hope fꦅor him that he gets another chance, a🃏s I think he deserves to be in F1.”

🎶Kvyat is known to be in contention for an F1 seat with Williams for 2018, but is not🌸 the team’s first choice, with recent reports claiming compatriot Sergey Sirotkin is now leading the chase for the drive.

The 2013 GP3 champion is poised to test a Formula E c⛄ar in Marrakesh next month, and recently appeared at a Euro NASCAR test 🦩in Italy.
