168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda admitted he was left frustrated with himself after “trying to be a hero,” which led to a costly crash in F1 qualifying for the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

Tsunoda was forced to start from the pit lane at Imola on Sunday following a scary♚ rollover crash in Q1.

Heading into the Viℱlleneuve chicane, Tsunoda took too much kerb and spun off into the barriers.

Afterꦜ the initial contact with the barrier, Tsunoda’s car flipped over, 🍃making it a scary rollover shunt.

Until then, Tsunodᩚᩚᩚ🍌ᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚa had shown decent pace at a track he’s familiar with, given Racing Bull’s extensive testing at the Italian circuit.

Tsunoda ultimately came away with 10th, giving Red B🔜ull an 🌠additional point in the constructors’ championship.

Reflecting on his crash in qualifying, Tsunoda conceded he will adjust🌊 his approach in future races.

“To be honest, the one-lap pace was pretty good,” Tsunoda said. “Until FP2 especially I was pretty close with Max, and in FP3 I didn’t have much opportu💝nity to have any laps.

“I had a quite okay confidence [going] into the Quღalifying, and that made it even worse with myself, that I probably made too much expectation to myself. I tried to be a hero in the first lap in Q1, which is really unnecessary.

“It’s just those things that I have to step back and rethink about it, and do better next time, for sure.🍒”

Tsunoda happy to repay Red Bull with a point

The extensive crash damage meant it was a long night fꦗor the Red Bull mechanics.

Tsun𓃲oda was pleased to leave Imola with at lea🌠st a point to reward the mechanics for their hard work.

“Yeah, at least I’m happy that I gave something to the team, especially with the amount of work🐓 they put overni✃ght, the mechanics – it was massive,” Tsunoda said.

“I’m okay that I at least gave something, but at the same time it wa🃏s very frustrating still from the last🎐 Qualifying… I couldn’t really sleep much last night. Anyway, I have to move on and it is what it is. I’m still okay that I gave something to the team.”
