By nationality, the racer, whom the whole world knows, is Russian. Nevertheless, multinational blood flows in the guy's veins: his maternal grandfather is a Tatar, his paternal grandfather is a Bashkir. The surname Daniel is of Polish origin (kvyat - "color"). The athlete himself is proud to be born in Russia.

For the first time, a boy enters a karting center when he and his parents move to Moscow. Success accompanied the talented guy from the first classes. His debut in his racing career was Daniil's victory in Sochi at the 2005 Christmas Cup. This year is considered the beginning of the sports biography of the race car driver. He is noticed by functionaries from programs to support promising young pilots.

As a member of Franco Pellegrini, the aspiring racer starts in the Italian championship. This circumstance was the reason for the move of the Kvyat family to Rome in 2007. Daniel made his debut in the Red Bull Junior Team youth program in 2010 at the Sepang circuit in Malaysia in the Formula BMW Pacific race. He played for the Eurointernational team.

The achievements of the Russian athlete were highly appreciated at home: in March 2013 he was recognized as the best racer in the Russian Federation and was awarded the “Pilot of the Year” award from the Russian Automobile Federation.

From the first Grand Prix, Kvyat showed results comparable to a stronger partner, and also showed the ability to save the car, avoiding accidents. In July 2013, the Russian athlete took part in the youth tests of the Formula 1 competition at the wheel of a Toro Rosso at Silverstone, where he impressed the bosses from Italy. The Toro Rosso team announced that Kvyat will become its main driver in the 2014 season, with Frenchman Jean-Eric Vergne as his partner.

2013 was a landmark year for Daniel. The Russian driver became the champion, having managed to win the final stage of the GP3 series in Abu Dhabi. Kvyat is the first who stepped from the car of this series straight to the place of the prize driver of Formula 1.

The management remained satisfied with the pilot's actions. It was decided to extend the contract with him for 2015, and then a sensation happened. After the German race car driver Sebastian Vettel decided to leave Red Bull, it became known that instead of the experienced Jean-Eric Verne, Daniel was taken to the place of the famous athlete.

In July 2015, Kvyat made history by climbing the podium at the Formula 1 stage. The pilot finished second at the Grand Prix in Hungary, showing the best result among Russians in the history of the "royal races".

The 2016 season began extremely unsuccessfully for Daniel: already at the races in Australia, his car stopped at the warm-up lap, not allowing him to fulfill all his plans.

Daniel developed psychological instability during the starts. Several times the guy got into accidents on the track, his reputation as a promising racer began to decline, although the official income of the Russian approached the $ 1 million mark this year.

In 2017, Daniel again played for the Toro Rosso team. His racing contract with the team was € 940 thousand. But a streak of failures followed the pilot. Already in May, Kvyat was removed from the competition.

Until recently, the personal life of Daniil Kvyat is a blank slate. The fans were interested in the life of the race car driver, trying to find out the name of his girlfriend, as well as to find out if the heart of the best Russian Formula 1 driver is free.

He said in an interview that all his free time and all his thoughts are focused on only one thing - competitions. Sometimes jokes slip through his statements. When asked about his wife and children, the racer replied that he specially received Arab citizenship in order to freely have wives in every city where the competition takes place.

Daniel has his own idea of ​​the ideal woman. The athlete believes that she should be sociable, fun and open. Kelly Piquet, the daughter of 3-time Formula 1 winner Nelson Piquet, soon became that girl. Daniel confirmed his relationship with Kelly by publishing their joint photo on Instagram.

Kvyat monitors physical fitness, regularly visits the gym. With a height of 182 cm, its weight does not exceed average parameters.

2019 was a happy year for Daniel not only in his sports career. On the night before the legendary Grand Prix race in Germany, Kvyat became a father. His chosen one Kelly gave him his first child - a daughter.

In 2018, it became known that the athlete was returning to Toro Rosso. The racer has signed a contract with the team for 2019.

The first race after returning to Formula 1 was for him in a tire test in Abu Dhabi, where the driver tried out a new technique. The Russian covered the track with the best time, completing 155 laps. The next tire tests with Daniel's participation were held in February 2019 in Barcelona.

In subsequent competitions, Kvyat showed decent results, almost always getting into the top ten finalists. In July, Daniel managed to take revenge - participation in the German Grand Prix ended with a podium for him.

The racer took 3rd place, which was the second victory for the Toro Rosso team after the brilliant performance of Sebastian Vettel in 2008. This is the fourth Formula 1 podium for Russian motorsport. Moreover, the first two cups in this four belong to Kvyat himself (victories at the Grand Prix of Hungary and China), and the third was brought to the Russians by Vitaly Petrov.

Races in Germany Kvyat called the most unpredictable in his career. At first everything was going against the Toro Rosso team, and Daniil no longer hoped for a successful finish. The risk that the rider took, changing the intermediate tires for slicks, turned out to be justified - the pilot was able to significantly accelerate and get around six rivals.
