What Is Daniil Kvyat Up To Now?
The community knows the Red Bull Racing Formula One team upholds a strict standard for themselves. And part of that is making sure all drivers meet their standards. However, if a driver doesn’t deliver as per expectations, they are quick to find a replacement. Unfortunately, Daniil Kvyat was a victim of that in 2016. His stint with AlphaTauri came to an end when Yuki Tsunoda replaced him in 2021.

Kvyat has been spending his time well though.
The Alpine Racing Team took the Russian as a reserve driver. Moreover, he joined the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2022 for G-Drive Racing. Unfortunately, amidst the tension in Russia and Ukraine, the FIA’s orders had his team withdraw on 6th March.

Luck hasn’t been on Kvyat’s side for much of his racing career. Stock car racing could be his new outlet. Maybe, he’s going to be great at left turns, and the aggressive racing of stock cars. What do you think?
