Daniil Kvyat has had success at the Chinese Grand Prix in the past. He will be hopeful that he can recreate that success this weekend and try and finish on the podium like he did in 2016. Toro Rosso have been performing well but they will hope to get both cars in the points during this race weekend. 

"I have good memories of China," Kvyat said to f1i.com. "Especially in 2016, when I went from sixth on the grid to stand on the podium in third place.

"It’s an interesting track with a good mix of some slow and medium speed corners and that very long straight. Get it right and it’s a satisfying track to drive.

"There are some tricky sections, including the hairpin which - after the very long straight and hard braking - is challenging. As are the first two turns, they are extremely long corners."

"In China, we must work hard to get a good setup so that everything works at its best. If we do that, I believe we can have a really good weekend."

The Chinese Grand Prix is set to be a spectical and all the teams will be looking to perform well on the historic day.
