Red Bull Racing has confirmed that Christian Klien will stay in the race seat for Turkey and Monza, while Tonio Liuzzi will continue with third driver duties. Klien and Liuzzi, who share a house and a car -- how cosy -- also share the racing duties alongside David Coulthard but it's Klien who's got the nod for the next two races.
"Following recent speculation in the media, Red Bull Racing confirm that Christian Klien will continue to race for the team alongside David Coulthard for the next two Grands Prix in Turkey and Monza, with Tonio Liuzzi continuing as third driver," said a statement from the team.
Red Bull has already said that the seat-sharing between Klien and Liuzzi will not continue next season. Scott Speed is strongly tipped to take the third driver role in 2006 so either Klien or Liuzzi is likely to be out of a job. Give the race seat to Klien and let Liuzzi do the window cleaning -- he's already got the dungarees and the silly hat.
