Why has Toro Rosso gone back to Daniil Kvyat?

SOCHI, Russia -- Given the remarkable nature of Daniil Kvyat's racing career to this point, it's hard to believe the Russian driver is still only 24 years old.

Confirmation of his return to Toro Rosso for next season continues an unconventional and slightly bizarre sequence of events which have punctuated the former GP3 champion's career. After impressing with Toro Rosso in 2014 he was given the unenviable task of filling the void left by four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel's defection to Ferrari following season.
