Switzerland’s Buemi, 21, and Spaniard Alguersuari, 20, have competed in just 27 and 18 grands prix respectively and complete the youngest driver line-up of any Formula One team.

Tost, however, believes the team will benefit more and more as their drivers gain experience.
Improvement

“Our drivers still lack F1 experience compared to the majority of their colleagues,” said Tost.

“Therefore, as they get more track time with every race, I expect to see an improvement in the final half of the season.

“It is not just a case of their driving getting better, because it is also true their understanding and engineering feedback improves, which is vital if we are to get the most out of our package.

“So I believe our drivers will be well prepared for 2011, which is why they are both confirmed for next year.

“It is also logical because one key role of Scuderia Toro Rosso is to bring on young drivers from the Red Bull Young Driver programme.

“At the ages of 21 and 20 respectively, both Seb and Jaime certainly still meet the right criteria.”

Results

Even so, Tost is not satisfied with the team’s performance during the first half of the season, during which Buemi and Alguersuari have collected just 10 points between them.

Tost said “every area” of the team’s performance needed improving, adding: “Unless all aspects of a team’s performance are operating properly, the results will not come.

“I expect a combination of car updates and improved performance from the drivers and indeed the whole team to bring us more points in what remains of the season.”
