Ricciado will now switch from STR to Red Bull, people will be keeping a keen eye. Although I doubt there will be much to tell about the matter from the outside. And one testing session will not tell anyone anything, but it will give people a chance to speculate.
Well, if Ricciardo is topping the times with a Toro Rosso, I'm already wondering what he will do in the Red Bull
Although times in testing don't mean much...
It depends a lot on what they are actually testing. The only other race driver in this test in Maldonado right now, and Williams as we all now is terrible this season. STR were actually very fast at Silverstone. Their qualifying lap was around 1:30.7. So Ricciado is still 1.2 seconds off the pace.
