Yuki Tsunoda believed the red flag tyre change rule cost him a chance at victory with RB in the Formula 1 Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
Last Sunday morning at Interlagos, the Japanese racer achieved the best qualifying of his career, placing his RB third on the grid in challenging conditions. Tsunoda did well to hold onto third position until he pitted for extreme Wet weather tyres on the track surface during the GP. Although the stoppage ultimately favored other drivers, Tsunoda and his teammate Lawson maintained their positions, finishing in seventh and ninth respectively after the race resumed. Despite the disappointing outcome, Tsunoda remained positive, acknowledging the team’s efforts and focusing on the remaining three race weekends. RB Technical Director Jody Egginton echoed Tsunoda’s sentiment, expressing disappointment at missing out on potential points in Sao Paulo and pledging to learn from the experience for the upcoming race in Las Vegas.
