Tsunoda doesn’t want Red Bull ‘misunderstanding’ over Aston Martin F1 links
Yuki Tsunoda’s contract with AlphaTauri has been extended for another year, and he is set to race alongside Daniel Ricciardo. There is speculation about Red Bull’s second seat in 2025 if Sergio Perez is not retained, which adds pressure to Tsunoda to perform well next season. Tsunoda is also linked to Honda, which supports Red Bull, but Honda will be leaving Red Bull at the end of 2025 to join Aston Martin. However, Tsunoda wants Red Bull to know that he is focused on impressing them and not thinking about an Aston Martin future. He hopes that his performance will lead to consideration for a promotion to partner Max Verstappen. Tsunoda believes that Honda’s main priority is to see a Japanese driver succeed in Formula 1, regardless of the team or engine manufacturer.
