Red Bull have announced that Yuki Tsunoda will race for the main squad from the Japanese Grand Prix onwards, with the 24-year-old getting the nod to replace Liam Lawson following a difficult opening two races for the New Zealander.
I guess they make this decision from seeing something in data we don’t get, but it seems harsh to drop Lawson after two tracks he’s never raced at and right before the track he knows quite well. He himself said on his recent Beyond the Grid episode that the first half of the season is rough for him, but the back-half he’s much more confident about.
