Yuki Tsunoda has been struggling since his promotion to Red Bull Racing, picking up just nine points since making the step-up. The Japanese driver is now under pressure, and Helmut Marko has named the Mexican Grand Prix at the end of October as a reference point – meaning the next three race weekends will be ‘crucial’, according to Tsunoda.
Isack Hadjar currently stands on pole-position for promotion to the senior team in 2026 and Tsunoda himself did not rule out a return to Racing Bulls while speaking to the media ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
