Kvyat hits the track in new Toro Rosso STR14

Scuderia Toro Rosso has completed its first running with its new Formula 1 car at Misano ahead of the start of pre-season testing in Barcelona next week.

Toro Rosso unveiled its new STR14 car on Monday, and has now released a video showing Daniil Kvyat hitting the track at Misano in a filming day.

The team typically completes a shakedown with its new cars at Misano ahead of testing, with filming day restrictions limiting running to 100 km.

It marked Kvyat's second on-track outing since returning to Toro Rosso, having also tested with the team at the end-of-season running in Abu Dhabi last November (pictured above).

The Russian will begin his third Toro Rosso stint at next month's Australian Grand Prix, having previously raced with the team through 2014 and through the majority of the 2016 and 2017 seasons before being dropped.
