Yuki Tsunoda expects Franco Colapinto to be in the running for a seat at one of the Red Bull teams, with the joint Milton Keynes-Faenza outfit’s 2025 F1 driver line ups remaining uncertain.
Yuki Tsunoda expressed his belief that Franco Colapinto might be under consideration for a Red Bull race seat next season, stating he would be surprised if he wasn’t. Colapinto’s impressive performance in F1, particularly since replacing Logan Sargeant at Williams, has sparked discussions about his future in the sport.
