Yuki Tsunoda finished a lapped last at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone and questioned the F1 stewards’ decision.
Yuki Tsunoda acknowledged that his penalty for colliding with Oliver Bearman in the British Grand Prix was justified, but he raised concerns about the decisions made by the F1 stewards. The incident occurred on lap 22 when Tsunoda spun the Haas car after being overtaken by Bearman around the outside of Brooklands following a restart where Max Verstappen spun. The penalty imposed on Tsunoda was a 10-second time penalty and one penalty point on his super-licence, bringing his total to five within a 12-month period. In previous races, Tsunoda received penalty points for separate incidents involving Franco Colapinto and overtaking Oscar Piastri’s damaged car during practice in Canada. While Tsunoda accepted the penalty for the Bearman incident, he expressed frustration over the cumulative impact of penalties in recent races. He emphasized the need to focus on performance moving forward despite the challenges faced with penalties.
