In 2006 Scott Speed became the first American driver in Formula 1 since Michael Andretti in 1993. In a sport that has only two American world champion drivers - Phil Hill and Mario Andretti - and few other sucessful American drivers, Speed, as with any American driver, has a lot to prove. The Toro Rosso team will not be an easy place to do that.
Speed is one of the regular drivers at the Toro Rosso team.
