Yuki Tsunoda has Laurent Mekies’ support to remain in the second Red Bull seat, although recently broke an unwanted record within the Austrian team.
Red Bull team principal Laurent Mekies has confirmed that there will be no second driver change this season and that they will continue to support Yuki Tsunoda. Tsunoda replaced Liam Lawson after the Chinese Grand Prix and has been struggling to keep up with teammate Max Verstappen’s performance. Despite facing challenges, Tsunoda is the first Red Bull driver to go seven consecutive races without scoring points. There have been suggestions to promote rookie Isack Hadjar, who has outperformed Lawson at Racing Bulls. Tsunoda showed improvement in the recent Belgium-Hungary races but still faces difficulties. It remains to be seen if sticking with Tsunoda was the right decision by Mekies. The audience can vote in the poll to give their opinion on this topic.
