Red Bull junior driver Daniel Ricciardo will drive the F1 team's championship-winning RB6 at the forthcoming young driver test in Abu Dhabi.

Runner-up in this year's Formula Renault 3.5 series, the Australian youngster has been with the Red Bull Junior Team since 2008 and has been Red Bull Racing's reserve driver throughout 2010.

Talking at the Yas Marina circuit today, Ricciardo said: "I can't wait to get another crack at driving Red Bull Racing's amazing Formula One car. I've been hanging out with the team and drivers all year at the races and it's made my urge to drive the car again even stronger – if that was possible! It's a year since I last drove the car (at last year's young driver test) and I really want to make the most of the two days."
