Yuki Tsunoda slates FIA over ‘ridiculous’ penalty
Yuki Tsunoda criticized the FIA stewards for giving him a “ridiculous” 10-place grid penalty for the Canadian Grand Prix. Tsunoda overtook McLaren’s Oscar Piastri under red-flag conditions after Piastri hit the ‘Wall of Champions’. The stewards stated that Piastri was not traveling at a speed preventing Tsunoda from following at a safe distance. Tsunoda argued that overtaking Piastri was necessary to avoid potential debris. Tsunoda expressed frustration, stating he does not understand the penalty given the circumstances. The penalty means Tsunoda will start 20th, and there is a chance he may have to start from the pit lane due to potential set-up changes post-penalty. Tsunoda found his qualifying performance of P11 “not the worst probably” but acknowledged it was not satisfactory.
