PARIS:
Australian driver Daniel Ricciardo was named as a driver for the Toro Rosso team for the 2012 Formula One world championship after spending the second half of the 2011 season with HRT. At Toro Rosso, he will team up with France’s Jean-Eric Vergne, with the duo replacing Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari. “This is something I have wanted ever since I was driving for Toro Rosso on Friday mornings at the races during the first part of last season,” said Ricciardo. “To be honest, I am still jumping up and down with excitement at the news.”
