Red Bull F1 boss Laurent Mekies declared Yuki Tsunoda’s first lap at the Singapore Grand Prix as “shocking” – with Tsunoda himself admitting it was his “worst ever start.”
Tsunoda, who qualified 13th on the grid while Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen started in second, dropped down to 18th after a terrible start, but did recover in the subsequent 61 laps to finish 12th.
