In his fourth term with Red Bull’s sister squad, Tsunoda has outscored his more experienced team-mate Daniel Ricciardo 22-12, delivering a stellar campaign. Despite his strong performance, Red Bull has not yet granted Tsunoda the opportunity to move up to the senior team, even with questions surrounding Sergio Perez’s struggles. It is speculated that Ricciardo or Red Bull reserve driver Liam Lawson may be considered before Tsunoda for a mid-season swap. Tsunoda has expressed frustration at being overlooked for promotion, believing his results merit a chance to partner Max Verstappen. Pierre Gasly, who understands Tsunoda’s situation, believes that with patience and continued competitiveness, Tsunoda will eventually secure the position he desires. Red Bull has decided to retain both Perez and Ricciardo for now, while Tsunoda has been confirmed to stay on the grid next season following the extension of his contract in June.
