BBC COMMENTATOR MARTIN BRUNDLE'S VIEW

"The 22-year-old from Perth, Australia joined the grid at the British Grand Prix on loan to Hispania Racing from Toro Rosso.

"A graduate from Formula Renault, winning British Formula Three, then onto World Series by Renault, he is a Red Bull protege.

"He's done pretty well against team-mate Vitantonio Liuzzi, especially in qualifying.

"He's not seen much of the chequered flag, though, with plenty of retirements.

"It's difficult to read if he has done enough to convince Red Bull to use him ahead of Jean-Eric Vergne."
