Soft drinks magnate Dietrich Mateschitz enjoyed his first year in F1 so much with Red Bull he went halves with Gerhard Berger to buy a second team.


The value of the move is lost on most rational folk, but who are we to question the wisdom of an Austrian zillionaire. If nothing else it means a welcome return to the paddock for all-round good bloke Berger.


Vitantonio Liuzzi, who enjoyed a brief, four-race introduction to F1 last year at Red Bull, and American Scott Speed are probably battling for the right to replace Coulthard in Red Bull's senior team in 2007.
