2011 World Series by Renault runner-up Jean-Eric Vergne will be in action for Toro Rosso this weekend in Korea. Vergne, who drove for the Italian team at last year’s out-of-season young-driver test in Abu Dhabi, will take to the track in Jaime Alguersuari’s STR06 for Friday’s opening practice session.

Although the Frenchman will not put in an appearance in India later this month, he will be back in the Toro Rosso for Friday sessions in Abu Dhabi and Brazil.

Jaime sits out the session because the last time a driver was replaced on Friday morning, it was Sebastien Buemi who gave up his seat to Daniel Ricciardo, explained the team in a statement. Vergne will not drive at the Indian Grand Prix, because this is a new circuit and therefore both our race drivers will be given the maximum amount of track time.

He will return in Abu Dhabi, replacing Buemi. At the final round of the season in Brazil, whichever of the Toro Rosso drivers has the least points will give up his seat to Vergne for FP1.

The 21 year-old, who is a product of Red Bull’s young driver programme, won the 2010 British Formula Three championship after taking 13 wins and 20 pole positions. He made the step up from karts to single-seaters in 2007 and in 2009 finished runner-up in the European Formula Renault 2.0 series.

Ferrari denies wickedness towards Hamilton


The two drivers made contact at the Marina Bay race, and the controversy was fuelled further when the official highlights video posted on Formula 1's officer website included Smedley's radio message to Massa. 

William Shakespeare when he stumbled across the polemical mountain made out of the molehill that was the phrase delivered by Rob Smedley during the Singapore Grand Prix,"wrote the Horse Whisperer on Ferrari's website. It might not have been the most politically correct choice of word, but it definitely carried no malicious intent, especially when you take into account that Rob is a Middles rough lad, born and bred.

It is also true that this exhortation to Felipe came at the exit to Turn 5 on lap 11 of the race, at the end of which both the Ferrari man and Hamilton were due to come in to the pits together. In other words, it had nothing to do with the collision between Felipe and Lewis that happened on the following lap. 

It would not have taken much to avoid this misunderstanding, but that's what happens in the frenetic world of Formula 1. When all is said done, as the Bard of Avon himself might have put it, it was all much ado about nothing.
