With the 2017 Formula 1 season coming to a close in one race weekend, a few teams have juggled a few drivers around after the mid point of this season. Toro Rosso this week announced that their 2018 driver lineup will consist of Pierre Gasly and Brendon Hartley. The two drivers are extremely new to the team with Hartley only competing in two races during his busy World Endurance Championship with Porsche in the LMP1 class. Hartley has had a some mechanical failures in his Red Bull in his first couple outings so we have not seen the true potential of young Brenden but we know he is a pure talent.
