Inside Toro Rosso's best F1 season yet
The Toro Rosso team is currently fifth in the Formula 1 constructors' standings, one place above its best-ever finish. Here's how the Red Bull junior operation has been so successful so far in 2019
By any measurement, Scuderia Toro Rosso enjoyed a successful first half of the 2019 Formula 1 season.
It earned the only podium finish for a team outside the established big three with Daniil Kvyat's opportunistic third in Germany, and it had risen to an impressive fifth place in the world championship ahead of the summer break - better than the high of sixth it achieved back in 2008, when Sebastian Vettel famously won a race.
