Toro Rosso to run Ferrari engine in January

Vitantonio Liuzzi has revealed the Scuderia Toro Rosso team won't be running with Ferrari V8-engines until the end of January. In the meantime the team will continue to run the restricted Cosworth V10 engines.

Speaking to F1.com Liuzzi said: "It is not possible at the moment to confirm a precise date, but we expect the new car and the new engine to be ready at the end of January.

"The expectations are high. The name Ferrari is a guarantee of success and it would be a huge satisfaction to see an Italian team, with an Italian car powered by an Italian engine, making a big step forward together."
