In the round-up: Daniil Kvyat acknowledged he is in a precarious position in the driver market for the 2021 F1 season.
What they say
Daniil Kvyat’s season has been marred by some unfortunate luck, most recently at the Nurburgring when he clashed with Alexander Albon, while AlphaTauri team mate Pierre Gasly scored a win at Monza. With Yuki Tsunoda being tipped for a promotion to the team next year, Kvyat faces an uncertain future:
I haven’t got many ideas, so far, about it. All I know is that there are six races remaining this season and I’ll do my best in the six races remaining and that’s the best thing I can do right now.
I’m aware that the situation isn’t very easy. And, of course, that there are not very many seats available. But from my side I can only do the best in this races remaining
