Swiss driver Sebastien Buemi will continue its relationship with Red Bull Racing as reserve driver and tester during the 2012-13 season, joining Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber, which were confirmed by the team.
The 23 years that ran next to last season in the Spanish Alguersuari subsidiary of Red Bull, Toro Rosso, was happy with his new position in the team, but said he would like to “ride in the races.”
“It’s good to stay at Red Bull for another year and have this opportunity with the team winning the World Championship.’d Rather ride in races, of course, but working with Red Bull Racing in the development of your car and provide a ‘feedback ‘throughout the season is the next best option, “Buemi said in a statement provided by the team.
Meanwhile, the Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said he is “completely logical that Sébastien continue on your computer”, as a member of ‘Junior Team’ since 2004. “He knows the team well from the time he spent with us in 2008,” he added.
“He has acquired significant experience in the race for the last three years. All-important ‘tests’, will make us work simulation along this year and will be present at each Grand Prix,” concluded Horner.
