F1 Toro Rosso to drop Sebastien Bourdais

Sebastien Bourdais who drives for Toro Rosso had an abysmal season so far.
This season after nine Grand Prix, he could only garner two Championship points, lying in 16th position, and his best results were 8th position in Australia and Monaco.
I wasn’t surprised on the rumors that the Scuderia Toro Rosso has decided to drop the 30 year old for a 19 year old prodigal driving teen.
Spain’s Jaime Alguersuari is expected to drive for the Italian team, and you might just see him in the next race in Hungary.
If so, that would make him the youngest ever driver to compete in Formula 1, taking over the mantle held previously by Sebastian Vettel.
Toro Rosso is interested to sign the young driver for the long haul.
Alguersuari is a reserve driver for Red Bull Racing, and was the champion at the British Formula 3 Championship last year, so the kid has the calibre to drive.
Will he be another Vettel in the making? Who knows, but he is indeed an exciting prospect.
As for Bourdais, the Frenchman might just return to Le Mans 24 Hours or Champ Car World Series.
