Franz Tost hits back over James Key deal with McLaren

This storyline could become very interesting rather quickly. This morning McLaren suggested that James Key was to become their new technical director, but it appears those at Toro Rosso aren't so certain.

Toro Rosso tweeted a comment from Franz Tost.

It sounds like if a deal is to be made, huge sums of money will be transferred over between the two teams. Speculation continues over whether McLaren junior driver Lando Norris could also be part of the trade deal.

Helmut Marko has a history of bringing up young drivers and earlier in the season he demonstrated his interest in the 18[year-old but McLaren refused to let go.
