Yuki Tsunoda is having a frustrating time, with numerous mistakes made in Austin and Mexico.
This is perhaps the worst moment for the Japanese of RB F1 because Liam Lawson continues to impress the leaders of Red Bull and he seems to already have one foot in the top team if Sergio Perez were to be ousted.
So should we talk about a change in fortune now for Tsunoda?
“I think it's part of the career and you have good times and obviously there are always bad times. Yes, the accidents, it hasn't been helpful from that point of view. I try to minimize distractions and concentrate on the race I hope it will bring me luck But so far, these are not the best races I do But each race is new, I don't think about anything for weeks. previous races and now we focus on beating. Haas F1 in the championship.”
What are the positive points for this, the strengths of the VCARB01 compared to the VF-24?
“We are clearly performing better on some circuits. Haas also had a good pace in qualifying. I don't know if it's better or worse, but at least we were similar in Mexico in my opinion, if you exclude my problems. Of course I probably shouldn't miss my qualifiers, I didn't really maximize the opportunity.”
“In terms of the car, Mexico was at least similar. On other tracks I know we are maybe a little behind because I think they are probably faster on the fast circuits so far . But yes, we will, I hope, develop much better in the next races.”
There is a lot of speculation surrounding Sergio Perez's future in Formula 1. Christian Horner even said after Sunday's race that there comes a time when difficult decisions have to be made. If we asked him, would he ride alongside Max in the same car? Obviously, but he doesn't really seem to believe it anymore.
“Yes! For sure, he's always the driver you want to ride with. He's the best driver so far and he has a lot of skills and I would definitely like to learn a lot of things. But also finish my learning. I'll see how it goes if that happens. I'm now focusing on what I have to do and so far, I'm not really able to achieve what I want to do.
There are also rumors that Franco Colapinto could join the Red Bull family…
“He's definitely doing a good job. But, to be honest, I don't know much about any of that. And I haven't seen much. It's an option, obviously, because he's holding his own well and he doesn't have a place yet for next season and if he is fast, I think for any team that can, he will be an option.
