Yuki Tsunoda admitted it was “incredible” how168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Max Verstappen could “cope” with his setup choices after trying th🎃em on the Red Bull simulator.

Verstappen return♛ed to winning ways at Suzuka wit꧃h a faultless display from pole position.

On the other side of the garage, it was a difficult first race at Red Bulඣl for Tsunodaꦍ, who failed to make it into Q3 and finished outside the top 10 in the grand prix.

After a solid start to the weekend in practice, Tsunoda deviated from Verstap𒊎p꧑en’s setup.

Tsunoda opted for more downforce, running a bigger rear wing on the car, which ultimately didn’t wor🔯k out.

Speaking ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix, Tsunoda revealed that he had tried Verstappen’s full setup and “definitꦡely felt the trickiness”

“In terms of how I got on in the car, it’s still OK, it’s too early stages to say I’m able to drive comfortably or not. But I think I’m able to cope with the car balance that most drivers strug♏gle with so far,” Tsunoda said as quoted by .

“Actually, we went to Max’s side rather than my setup, which I thought would🔜 be good. Surprisingly, I’m able to drive quite well so I’m happy with it so far. The direction we tried in the simulator, which was a bit different [from] China to focus on calming down the rear, and the setup we concluded in the end I felt was good.

“Also, Max felt⭕ pretty positive in the🐲 simulator, so in the end, also Max started with that direction which I quite liked as well already at Suzuka. I went for a  more extreme side in that direction, and it just didn’t work out.

“It’s not like the setup that Max used in China; China was a bit more specific because it was more front-end limitation. But Max’s setup helps [the rear] and I think that setup probably in the simulator I feel definitely the trickiness. Itꦓ’s incredible how he’s able to cope with that kind of setup.”

Verstappen demands Red Bull improvements

Despite not having the quickest car in F1 amid McLaren’s impressive start to the year, V🥂erstappen sits just one point behind Lando Norris at the top of the drivers’ championship.

Verstappen extracted the maximum from the RB2🎃1 in search of h🌊is fifth consecutive F1 title.

Despi😼te the close gap in the standings, Verstappen is cautious about his title chances without significant improvements to the car.

🅷“No, we definitely need to improve to be able to fight for a title,” Verstappen said.

“It’s great that we are one point behind, but I think it’s more that we just maximised our 🃏weekends quite well so far. To really fight for a title, we need to find more perf🎃ormance.”
