Red Bull F1 Star Faces Humiliation as FIA Cracks Down on Slow Driving
In a shocking turn of events, the FIA has dealt a heavy blow to Red Bull F1 star Yuki Tsunoda, plunging him into a whirlpool of embarrassment. Tsunoda’s struggles on the track have been a thorn in his side ever since he joined Red Bull, with disappointing performances and a lack of points to show for. Red Bull’s top honcho, Helmut Marko, didn’t mince words when he declared the team’s championship ambitions as good as gone, pointing the finger at Tsunoda’s lackluster form, branding it as “not good enough” and “slow to get going.”
During the recent Belgian Grand Prix, Tsunoda’s woes deepened as his leisurely pace caught the stewards’ attention for all the wrong reasons. The young driver found himself under scrutiny for “driving unnecessarily slowly” during the sprint qualifying, earning his second reprimand of the season for the blunder. But that wasn’t the end of Tsunoda’s misfortunes at Spa, as he also found himself entangled in a contentious incident with fellow driver Pierre Gasly. Despite Gasly initially being summoned for impeding Tsunoda, the stewards ultimately absolved him of any wrongdoing, citing no evidence of “unnecessary impeding.”
Despite the dark cloud hanging over Tsunoda’s 2025 season, the Japanese racer has found solace in the unwavering support of Red Bull’s top brass, including Marko and former team principal Christian Horner. Tsunoda’s flashes of brilliance were evident in his qualifying performance at the British Grand Prix, where he secured a commendable seventh place on the grid. In a recent statement, Tsunoda expressed gratitude for the support he has received from the team, emphasizing their efforts to help him reset and refocus on his racing.
As the F1 world watches with bated breath, the spotlight remains firmly fixed on Tsunoda as he navigates the highs and lows of his racing career. Will he rise above the challenges and reclaim his glory on the track, or will the pressure prove too much for the young star to handle? Only time will tell in this high-octane drama unfolding in the world of Formula 1.
