Red Bull Racing’s Yuki Tsunoda Faces Uphill Battle as Team Principal Christian Horner Expresses Support
In a surprising turn of events at Red Bull Racing, young driver Yuki Tsunoda has found himself struggling to adapt to the team’s RB21 car. Despite showing promising potential, Tsunoda has only managed to secure six points in four races, falling short of matching the pace set by his teammate Max Verstappen.
However, Team Principal and CEO Christian Horner remains optimistic about Tsunoda’s future with the team. Horner recently revealed that Red Bull organized a special TPC test at Silverstone to help Tsunoda familiarize himself with the car and the engineering staff. Although the test was slightly disrupted by rain, Tsunoda was able to get some valuable track time.
When asked about Tsunoda’s performance compared to Verstappen, Horner emphasized that improvement is needed across the entire lap rather than in a specific area. Despite the challenges, Horner praised Tsunoda’s positive energy, character, and speed, noting that as the young driver gains confidence, he is expected to climb higher up the grid.
It seems that Yuki Tsunoda’s journey to success at Red Bull Racing is just beginning, with both obstacles and opportunities lying ahead. As the talented driver continues to adjust to his new environment, fans and experts alike are eagerly anticipating his growth and development in the competitive world of Formula 1.
