Scuderia Toro Rosso confirms drivers

By on

Tonio Liuzzi, Scott Speed and Neel Jani will drive for Scuderia Toro Rosso next year, when it contests its first season in Formula One. Red Bull bought out the Minardi Team of Paul Stoddart and gave their junior team the name Scuderia Toro Rosso.

Italian Formula One driver Tonio and American GP2 star Scott will race for the team, while 21-year-old Neel will be its test and reserve driver, performing Friday driving duties at each race of the season.
With an average driver age of just 23, it's a scary thought that, as rookies, Speed and Jani will be looking up to Liuzzi as the 'veteran' of the team! All three drivers are products of the Red Bull Junior Team.
