Yuki Tsunoda’s Heroic Shame: Monster Crash Shocks Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Qualifying

IMOLA, ITALY - MAY 17: Yuki Tsunoda of Japan and Oracle Red Bull Racing prepares to drive in the garage during qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Emilia-Romagna at Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari on May 17, 2025 in Imola, Italy.

Yuki Tsunoda, the Red Bull Racing driver, faced a heart-stopping moment during the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix qualifying session at Imola. The young driver admitted feeling “ashamed” after causing a monstrous crash that left his car flipped over and in need of extensive repairs.

Tsunoda’s overzealous approach with a ‘hero’ mindset led to a dramatic incident during Q1 at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari. The Japanese driver lost control of his car at Turn 6, sending him careening into the gravel and smashing into the tire barriers. The impact was so severe that his RB21 flipped over, hit the fence, and landed back on all four tires.

Despite the terrifying crash, Tsunoda managed to walk away unscathed. However, his Red Bull team faced a race against time to repair the heavily damaged car before the Grand Prix.

Expressing his regret and embarrassment, Tsunoda acknowledged his mistake, stating, “It was really stupid for myself, pushing like that, unnecessarily hard.” The driver confessed to not fully understanding the car’s adjustments made by his team before the qualifying session, leading to his aggressive approach on the track.

With his car in shambles, Tsunoda’s hopes of a good starting position were dashed. Starting from the 20th position, the young driver lamented his failed attempt at a quick lap to secure a spot in Q2.

As Tsunoda’s team worked tirelessly to fix the car for the race, the young driver could only apologize for the unnecessary pressure and challenges he had put them through.

Stay tuned for more updates on Tsunoda’s journey at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix as he aims to redeem himself after the qualifying disaster.
