Red Bull protege Jean-Eric Vergne will take the next step on his path to an F1 seat when he drives for Toro Rosso in FP1 in Korea this weekend.
The Frenchman will replace Jaime Alguersuari in Korea, skip the Indian GP, and then return to deputise for Sebastian Buemi in Abu Dhabi.
Whoever has the least points will then have to sit out the first session in Brazil.
With Daniel Ricciardo in action at HRT Red Bull has four young drivers from which to choose the 2012 Toro Rosso line-up…

Nothing like a little competition for a drive in the final race.
It’s just a question of whether JA or SB hands his car over for FP1 in Brazil, not that dramatic!
