David Coulthard and Christian Klien will be in the driving seats for Red Bull Racing in Melbourne. This has been confirmed by Red Bull Racing this week. It is also worth noting that Christian Klien has retained the Formula 3000 title. Christian is a very talented driver whom is destined to a successful career in Formula 1. See his driver profile for more details.

Sporting Director for Red Bull Racing, Christian Horner had this to say.
“Fortunately we are in the position of having in the team two exceptionally talented young drivers, who have both impressed the team during pre season testing. I’ve been extremely pleased with Christian’s and Tonio’s development during the past few weeks, as well as by their professionalism and sportsmanship.”

This could mean that we will see a lot of switching about in the driver's seats this year. This may not suit several drivers in Formula 1 just now, but I’m pretty positive that DC's seat will not be jeopardized this year. This could turn out to be an interesting year, with the possibility of having three drivers in the points, come the end of the season.
