After a winter of uncertainty Scuderia Toro Rosso today confirmed that Sebastien Bourdais will drive for the team again this season. It will be the 29 year-old Frenchman's second season in Formula One and this year he will team up with Rookie Sebastien Buemi.

Sebastien Bourdais
“It has been a very long and difficult winter, but now the waiting is finally over and I am really excited about tackling my second season with Scuderia Toro Rosso. I would like to thank Red Bull and Dietrich Mateschitz for this opportunity to continue with a team that made so much progress last year."

"Now, I can focus on preparing for the coming season. It promises to be a very interesting one, thanks to all the rule changes and I’m also looking forward to establishing a good relationship with my new team-mate, Sebastien Buemi, to ensure both of us do the best possible job for the team and for Red Bull.”

Franz Tost, Team Principal
"We are pleased that Sebastien will be with us again for another season.
After one year with Toro Rosso, we expect him to profit from the experience he gained last season. He now knows the F1 environment, the race tracks and the team. In addition, the slick tyres, which make a comeback this year, should suit his driving style very well."

"Therefore he will tackle the coming season with much more experience under his belt. This will be especially valuable given that our other driver, Sebastien Buemi, is an F1 rookie, who has come up through the ranks of the Red Bull Junior Driver programme.”

he should get another go, he had some solid drives.

 

I'm hope Bourdais keeps developing as a driver. He has the potential to shake things up a bit but didn't quite shine like his former teammate Vettel did.
