AlphaTauri have emphatically condemned accusations levelled at themselves and Red Bull following Yuki Tsunoda's retirement at the Dutch Grand Prix.
Tsunoda retired from the race at Zandvoort on Sunday, which triggered a virtual safety car - giving F1 leader and Red Bull ace Max Verstappen enough time to make a second pit stop and retain his lead and track position over Lewis Hamilton and George Russell.
But with AlphaTauri, who Tsunoda drives for, and Red Bull closely associated, conspiracy theories emerged online over the retirement but both teams have strongly insisted there was no collusion. Furthermore, the FIA stewards found that the Japanese driver had a problem with the differential on his AT03, which ultimately led to his DNF.
