Toro Rosso team principal Franz Tost believes that Toro Rosso finally has a "complete package" with the team finding another level of performance in 2019.

In Monaco, the team recorded its first double points finish since the 2017 Spanish Grand Prix, with Daniil Kvyat and Alexander Albon finishing seventh and eighth respectively.

Ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix, Tost paid tribute to the team that has put together a highly competitive car according to the team boss.

"So far Toro Rosso has a competitive package together," he told media on Friday in Canada.

"We have a car that is fast, a car that works well from the mechanical side as well as the aerodynamic. And with Honda we have a very strong partner on the power unit side. We have two competitive, high-skilled drivers.

"Both of them are doing a really good job and the team is improving as well. The complete package, I must say, currently is quite good.

"We reshuffled our aerodynamic department. We changed a lot in the production to increase the quality.

"Also in the assembling we changed many working methods and processes and I think everything together came up with the result that the car is quite good."

Albon lead Kvyat by the end of Friday in Montreal in 14th and 15th respectively, with the pair just a tenth off of senior team Red Bull.
