The press conference that was held at the start of the Grand Prix of Spain this time was a little different.

Where the average press conferences are not so exciting, were now all eyes on Toro Rosso and Red Bull. Drivers Daniil Kvyat and Max Verstappen were both in a new suit, waiting for the questions that the press would go.

Kvyat responded firmly to the question of what exactly the change was. “The decision came as a shock, but it is what it is.”, further, the 22-year-old Toro Rosso driver that he is welcome felt by the team. “There is a positive atmosphere”. When the journalist asked whether he was not too soon when the Red Bull team has stepped in, he had briefly thought. “I don’t think so.” replied the Russian.

Max Verstappen was less nervous for the cross-examination. The 18-year-old Dutchman says are pleased with the opportunities that he gets from Red Bull. Verstappen emphasized what we had already heard: a switch to a top team like Red Bull Racing had always been the plan. Max will especially focus on the RB12. His new car where he is this weekend for the first time will go racing. A journalist asked the reasons for Red Bull to Max and Daniil had given for the exchange. Verstappen went here not on in. Kvyat responded by saying that if the bosses want something done also. The Rus will focus on the remaining seventeen races and show what it has to offer. Carlos Sainz, the former team-mate of Verstappen, sees the exchange as a moment to be very hard to fight to do the same. He also says the remaining races to want to use it to the best of themselves to show. The Grand Prix of Spain starts on Sunday at 14:00 hours.
