F1: Yuki Tsunoda destroyed his Red Bull in Saudi Arabia

The Japanese missed the calculation on the closure of the second training session and ended with his RB21 against the wall.

Red Bull does not win for dislikes in 2025. The triumph of Max Verstappen in Japan was just an oasis in an increasingly large desert. The lazy walk of RB21, born with the problems of a wind tunnel that showed data that had no correlation on the track, put the equipment of energy drinks in an awkward situation. After just four major awards, the shield of the energizing drinks lived a change of pilots (they degraded Liam Lawson to Racing Bulls and ascended to Yuki Tsunoda), a forgettable career of Baréin in which Max Verstappen was bare They point to a possible departure from the Dutch at the close of this season if it is not in the top three in the holiday cut … Uff, a lot. But something else was missing: Tsunoda’s good destroyed his RB21 in the second training of Saudi Arabia.

After the convulsed week living in Red Bull doors, at least on the track, it seemed that something began to accommodate in Jeddah. There were nine minutes to close the second rehearsal session, Verstappen was third and Tsunoda, sixth. In apocus, the Japanese showed some signs of trust with the car, after adding for the first time in Baréin with the Austrians and when becoming well inside the ten in the Saudi essays. But, suddenly, former Racing Bulls made an unusual mistake: the inner curve 27 hit the left front wheel and ended up stamped against the external.

“I turned too much and broke the inner wall, which caused damage. I feel ashamed,” Tsunoda said In F1TV after the batch. The damage to the left and front front suspension were in sight. The Red Bull mechanics began to work as soon as the car finally reached Boxes. A long night was coming. Austrian, more and more bogged down.
