Unleashing Fury: Tsunoda’s Demise Unveiled by Telemetry Data
Yuki Tsunoda, once hailed as a rising star in Formula 1, is now under intense scrutiny as telemetry data reveals a stark reality – he is simply not fast enough on the track. With Max Verstappen’s early exit from the Austrian Grand Prix, Red Bull’s hopes were dashed, and Tsunoda’s lackluster performance in Q1 did little to uplift the team’s spirits. Promoted to Red Bull after just two races, Tsunoda has failed to impress, with his recent clash with Franco Colapinto adding to his woes.
Former driver turned F1 analyst, Jolyon Palmer, has shed light on Tsunoda’s predicament, stating that there seems to be no breakthrough in sight for the Japanese driver. The telemetry data speaks volumes, showing no glaring errors but a consistent lack of speed throughout Tsunoda’s laps. As Palmer bluntly puts it, “He simply is not fast, and without any clear issues to address, both Tsunoda and his engineers are at a standstill.”

Despite his underwhelming performance, Tsunoda will not be replaced at Red Bull for the remainder of the season, as Helmut Marko cites “a lack of alternatives.” However, the looming presence of Arvid Lindblad, set to join F1 in 2026, casts a shadow over Tsunoda’s future with the team. Unless the Japanese driver can swiftly turn the tide on his abysmal form, his career hangs in the balance.
The harsh reality of Tsunoda’s struggles is now laid bare for all to see, with his once-promising trajectory in the sport now in jeopardy. As the pressure mounts and the clock ticks, Tsunoda faces a pivotal moment that could make or break his future in Formula 1.
