F1 pundit suggests one driver saved from sacking by sponsors
According to Sky F1 pundit Bernie Collins, AlphaTauri made a mistake by not teaming up Daniel Ricciardo with Red Bull reserve driver, Liam Lawson, for the 2024 season. Collins believes that sponsors might have played a role in preserving Yuki Tsunoda’s position on the team, preventing him from being replaced by Lawson. The suggestion is that Ricciardo and Lawson would have formed a strong partnership, enhancing the team’s performance. However, it seems that financial considerations may have influenced the decision-making process and ultimately kept Tsunoda in his seat.
