Toro Rosso remain the only team to still be supplied engines by Honda and on their home track in Suzuka they have pulled off an impressive result during qualifying. Brendon Hartley starts tomorrow from sixth and Pierre Gasly would be starting in seventh.

It remains to be seen how well the two drivers hold onto their positions on Sunday, but after a double brake failure in Russia, a good points haul would be extremely welcome. Gasly would require as much experience as he gets while fighting for positions in the top ten before he progresses to Red Bull Racing for next year.

Hartley, meanwhile, would be looking to strengthen a case for himself for a renewal of his contract with Toro Rosso for the upcoming season.
