Looks like Seb will replace DC in Red Bull’s senior team

The longer the 2008 F1 season goes on, the more likely it seems that Sebastian Vettel will make the step up from the baby Red Bull team, Toro Rosso, and into the senior Red Bull team. That would almost certainly see the German take the seat of David Coulthard, rather than Mark “Steady Webby” Webber.

Vettel is getting stronger and stronger, and Coulthard is having a very tough year, despite solid runs in Canada and France.

Christian Horner, Red Bull’s boss is reported as saying it’s a “possibility” that Vettel could move up to Red Bull from Toro Rosso - that’s a stronger hint than he has given before.

“We always try to have the best possible driver pairing,” Horner also told Auto Motor und Sport.

That means Webber and Vettel in 2009.
