Red Bull F1 star suffers embarrassment after FIA take action over driving too slowly
The FIA has taken action against Red Bull F1 star Yuki Tsunoda, delivering an embarrassing verdict that hit close to home for the struggling driver.
Tsunoda’s performance dip at Red Bull has been a source of frustration as he has only scored points in three grands prix since joining the team.
Red Bull’s Helmut Marko publicly criticized Tsunoda’s form, labeling it as inadequate and slow to progress, conceding the constructors’ championship.
During the Belgian Grand Prix, Tsunoda was investigated by stewards for driving unnecessarily slowly in sprint qualifying, earning his second reprimand of the season.
Tsunoda was also involved in an impeding incident with Pierre Gasly but was not impeded himself, leading to no further actions taken.
Despite his struggles, Tsunoda expressed feeling support from Red Bull management and showcased his talent by securing seventh place in the British GP qualifying session.
