Tsunoda: F1 stewards ‘love the top teams’ amid Piastri clash

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Yuki Tsunoda has again remarked that the Formula 1 stewards “love the top teams” following his clash with McLaren’s Oscar

After facing a grid penalty, Yuki Tsunoda started the Mexico Grand Prix in 17th place but quickly made up positions on the first lap. He made an early pit stop and was able to rise to eighth before the race was stopped due to a red flag caused by Kevin Magnussen’s crash. Tsunoda acknowledges that the red flag worked in his favor, but he also credits the performance of the AlphaTauri car. In an attempt to overtake Oscar Piastri, the two drivers made contact and Tsunoda spun out of the top 10, but no further action was taken by the stewards. Tsunoda explains that he was desperate to overtake Piastri because running in turbulent air was affecting his tires and brakes. He believes that the AT04 car might not be as competitive in Brazil as it was in Mexico but remains hopeful of scoring points.
