168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda was pleased with his first F1 outing for Red Bull 🅰during the post-season Abu Dhabi test.

Tsu🗹noda finally had the 𝓡chance to drive for Red Bull, participating in the post-season Pirelli tyre test at the Yas Marina Circuit.

He completed 127 laps in the RB20, setti🌸ng the 17th fastest time of the day.

The Japanese d♏river will have been keen to impress Red Bull officials ahead of a crucial decision regarding next 🎶year’s line-up.

Red Bull are still weighing up whether to replace 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez and, if so, with which driver.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson is thought to be the favourite to suc💎ceed Perez should the decision be made, though Tsunodaꦚ remains a strong contender.

Reflecting on his outing for Red Bull in Abu Dhabi, Tsunoda said: “The Abu Dhabi post-season test has been so fun today, it’s the first time in the past four years that I have driven a diffeไrent car.

“You can physically feel why the RB20 has been fighting for a chﷺampionship this year, it feels like a very different car to drive. We have had a very proactive day today so I am really happy with that. There is still a lot of learning that I have to do but the team have doඣne a great job of preparing such a great run today, it’s been such an enjoyable atmosphere in the garage.

“I feel like the car suits my driving style and I haven’t struggled much at all to adapt, even on the long runs I have been able to run consistently today and was able to feel the limitations of the car which if you don’t have confidence in the car you are unable to test. I am happy more than ever at the moment and making sure that the team have the information that they require fro𝔍m each run is the most important thing to get out of today.”

Red Bull set to decide on their F1 2025 driver line-up

Red Bull officials reportedly held a meeting to discuss their driver line-u✃p 🅺for next year. Perez’s worrying form has prompted them to explore promoting either Lawson or Tsunoda.

While Tsuno♒da has enjoyed an edge on track, Red Bull have been impressed by how quickly Lawson has adapted, given his limited F1 experience.

Red Bull slipped to third in the F1 constructors’ champions✅hip in 2024 – their w🎉orst finish since 2019.
