Sky Sports F1’s Anthony Davidson spoke exclusively to RacingNews365!
Anthony Davidson reckons that Yuki Tsunoda’s repeated snubs for promotion to Red Bull Racing could be due to his ties with Honda. Tsunoda and Liam Lawson were considered to replace Sergio Perez for the 2025 season, but Lawson was ultimately chosen over Tsunoda to partner Max Verstappen. Davidson suggested that Tsunoda’s connection to Honda might be a reason for the decision. Despite Tsunoda’s impressive performance in the 2024 season, he remains puzzled about being overlooked. Red Bull might not want to groom a driver for a future championship rival, especially with Honda moving to Aston Martin in 2026. Lawson has impressed the right people and earned the opportunity, leaving Tsunoda to ponder his future path in Formula 1.
