Toro Rosso are locked in a mid field constructors battle with Williams and Renault. Toro Rosso are currently sitting in 6th with 53 points. Williams are 5th with 68 points with Renault 7th with 48 points. With Sainz starting rather well at Renault collecting points on his first outing for the team, Renault have a good chance of overhauling the points difference to Toro Rosso with two rookies.
