Daniel Ricciardo is tipped for a seat in the GP2 championship for 2011, but according to his team boss this year, the 21-year-old Australian is ready to move into formula one.
Currently reserve driver for Red Bull's two F1 teams, Daniel Ricciardo was replaced by David Coulthard for the Suzuka race last weekend, as he contended for the Renault World Series title in Spain.
He ultimately lost out to Mikhail Aleshin, a 23-year-old Russian whose prize will be a Renault F1 test in Abu Dhabi next month.
But Daniel Ricciardo is also destined for formula one, his Tech 1 team boss Simon Abadi insists.
"We're all convinced that not only will he get into F1, but above all he'll win there. It couldn't be otherwise," he said.
Red Bull-sponsored Ricciardo is now leaving the Tech 1 team, and is tipped for a seat in the GP2 championship for 2011.
"I should be taking part in the F1 rookies tests in Abu Dhabi. We'll see in the coming weeks what Red Bull has in store for me," he said.
In Abu Dhabi, Red Bull's sister F1 team Toro Rosso will be running Ricciardo's Tech 1 teammate Jean-Eric Vergne .
Sergio Perez will also make his F1 debut in Abu Dhabi at the wheel of a Sauber.
Sauber's new rookie driver for 2011 has been at the team's Hinwil headquarters this week.
Mexican Sergio Perez, 20, visited the Swiss factory for a seat fitting, ahead of his team debut at the season ending tests in Abu Dhabi next month.
Blick newspaper said the Telmex sponsored driver is scheduled to drive for two days at the United Arab Emirates capital's Yas Marina circuit.
