Ferrari have named Daniil Kvyat as the team’s development driver for the 2018 season.

The announcement comes three months after the Russian was dropped by Toro Rosso following the 2017 United States Grand Prix.

Kvyat, who has two podium finishes in his 72 career starts, had been linked with a move to Williams this year.

The 23-year-old joined the Red Bull junior programme in 2010 and made his F1 debut with Toro Rosso four years later.

Kvyat finished second at the 2015 Hungarian Grand Prix before claiming another podium with a third-placed finish in China the following year.
