Yuki Tsunoda Shocked by Red Bull’s Tricky Car as Max Verstappen Struggles to Click with Vehicle

Japanese driver Yuki Tsunoda expressed his surprise at the unexpected challenges posed by Red Bull’s car during the Japanese Grand Prix practice sessions. Tsunoda, recently promoted from Red Bull’s junior team, Racing Bulls, to partner with reigning world champion Max Verstappen, found the RB21 to be more difficult to handle than anticipated. Despite finishing just a tenth of a second behind Verstappen in the first practice session, Tsunoda encountered difficulties in the second session, finishing 18th due to various interruptions.

Verstappen, on the other hand, also faced issues with the car’s setup, ending the second practice in eighth place. The session saw both Racing Bulls cars outperforming the senior team, with Isack Hadjar in third place and Liam Lawson in fifth. Verstappen admitted to struggling with confidence and commitment on the track, indicating a need for further adjustments to the car.

Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner praised Tsunoda’s performance, noting his clear and concise feedback during the sessions. Horner confirmed that both Tsunoda and Verstappen were using identical engine modes but suggested that Tsunoda’s car might have a different setup to enhance drivability. He emphasized the importance of providing a more predictable and confidence-inspiring car for the drivers, especially considering Verstappen’s unique ability to extract maximum performance from the vehicle.

As the Japanese Grand Prix unfolds, all eyes are on Red Bull as they navigate the challenges posed by their car’s handling and performance. With Tsunoda’s unexpected struggles and Verstappen’s quest to find the right setup, the team faces a pivotal moment in their quest for success on the track.
