Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko has announced that the team will conduct a review to investigate Yuki Tsunoda’s lack of pace during qualifying in Barcelona, as Tsunoda is set to start the Spanish Grand Prix from the last position on the grid after finishing 20th in Q1. Tsunoda expressed confusion over his limited pace, with Marko noting that Tsunoda’s car still differs from Max Verstappen’s due to the repairs following a crash at Imola. Marko mentioned that Tsunoda struggles to adapt quickly to car adjustments during qualifying, in contrast to Verstappen. This will be the third successive race where Tsunoda does not start in the top 10, despite showing competitive speed in Friday practice compared to Verstappen.
