Yuki Tsunoda’s Heart-Wrenching Regret: “I Missed That F*cking Car!”

In a stunning revelation that has sent shockwaves through the motorsport community, Yuki Tsunoda has opened up about his profound regret from the tumultuous 2025 Formula One season. The Japanese driver, who made headlines when he was traded from Racing Bulls to Red Bull after just two races, candidly admitted that he feels he missed out on the opportunity of a lifetime: driving the “pretty f*cking good” Racing Bulls machine.

After the struggles of Liam Lawson at Red Bull, Tsunoda was thrust into the spotlight to partner none other than Max Verstappen. But the results were less than stellar. Over the span of 22 races and five sprints, Tsunoda managed to rack up only 30 points, a disheartening tally that ultimately led to his exit from the grid for the 2026 season, making way for Isack Hadjar. While Tsunoda will continue with Red Bull as their third and test driver, his racing future hangs in the balance.

Reflecting on his journey, Tsunoda’s tenure with Racing Bulls—formerly known as AlphaTauri—was marked by pivotal experiences and collaborations with some of the sport’s top talents, including Pierre Gasly, Nyck de Vries, and Daniel Ricciardo. Under his influence, the team managed to secure sixth place in the constructors’ standings, raking in 89 of their 92 points, highlighted by a podium finish for Hadjar in the Netherlands.

However, Tsunoda’s tone shifted dramatically when he discussed his biggest disappointment. “I don’t have many regrets,” he confessed during a media session, “but the only regret I have is missing out on that pretty f*cking good car at VCARB. It’s like throwing away your kids, your baby, because it is the car I developed with the team through the years with these regulations, and I am sure there is my DNA inside it as well.”

The emotional weight of his words underscores the passion and dedication Tsunoda has poured into his craft. He lamented not being able to reach the level of performance he aspired to, yet he maintained a sense of resolve regarding his decision to join Red Bull. “I don’t regret my decision,” he stated firmly.

As fans eagerly anticipate the upcoming 2026 season, Tsunoda’s heartfelt admission serves as a stark reminder of the fierce competition and heartache that can accompany a career in Formula One. Will this regret fuel Tsunoda’s comeback? Only time will tell.
