Has to be seen as a good thing for Daniel - certainly establishes him higher up the pecking order than Jev, should Kimi not be in the RB9 next season.

JEV is definitely out of the running. Too slow sunshine!

You have to see this as a 'confirmation' test don't you? Good luck Rikki and don't lose that number.

I hope he gets it. He's a nice guy, his own man and he likes ROCK.

Wow, Red Bull really want an evaluation session on Dan. Will not mean he has the seat, just that he is in the running.

I guess they will be able to make the decision on Dan if Kimi plays hardball. This will give them some info toward that decision.

I still bet on Kimi with my last dollar.

Dan sticking the RB9 in the gravel on his 7th lap won't have helped his cause!
