Yuki Tsunoda has been delivering exceptional performances this year. During his home Grand Prix at Suzuka, the VCARB F1 driver had a memorable outing. Starting in tenth place for the 53-lap Grand Prix, he displayed remarkable skills right from the beginning. Impressed by his incredible effort, Red Bulls’ team adviser made a bold statement, comparing Tsunoda’s performance to the race winner. The Dutchman won the event convincingly with a margin of over 12 seconds.
Tsunoda concluded his Japanese GP exploits with a tenth-place finish. The 80-year-old veteran of the sport has been full of praise for the 23-year-old Japanese driver. Tsunoda consistently performed well throughout the race and ultimately secured a well-deserved 10th position.
Since joining F1, Yuki Tsunoda has gained a reputation for being somewhat temperamental. His outbursts on the radio have attracted significant criticism over the years. However, to the surprise of many, he has shown remarkable composure on the radio, except for his incident in Bahrain. Helmut Marko is impressed with Tsunoda’s ability to remain calm during high-intensity Grand Prix events.
After four rounds in the ongoing campaign, Yuki Tsunoda has accumulated a commendable seven points. Looking ahead, the Chinese Grand Prix is next on the F1 calendar, and Tsunoda will once again aim for a top 10 finish at the event.
