The prospect of Red Bull bringing IndyCar race winner Colton Herta into Formula 1 debut makes for one of the most interesting rookie possibilities since Max Verstappen.
No F1 debutant is a guaranteed hit but with Herta you can make about as compelling a case that he could be a brilliant rookie as you can that his switch is doomed to fail.
Herta has been lined up by Red Bull to replace Alpine-bound Pierre Gasly at AlphaTauri, the latest move in a fascinating and volatile period for F1’s driver market.
The American driver represents a bigger gamble than teams normally take, including the Red Bull ones. So what’s the thinking behind it - and is it a sure thing?
