More problems for Red Bull Powertrains: Tsunoda will not start in GP
Where Carlos Sainz seems to be able to start in the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix despite problems, this is not the case for Yuki Tsunoda. The AlphaTauri driver came to a halt on his lap to the grid and was unable to continue his journey due to engine problems.
Over the on-board radio, Tsunoda shouts at one point, "Engine lost." Then the Japanese driver is told to turn off the engine and climb out of the car.
It means big problems again for Red Bull Powertrains. Last week Max Verstappen, Sergio Perez and Pierre Gasly retired and number four is already a fact. Tsunoda, Perez and Gasly have also had to change several engine parts this week.
"I don't know what happened, but looks like something in the drivetrain. We had to stop the car he can't race," team boss Franz Tost said.
Tsunoda is ready before we've started
¡¡PROBLEMAS para Tsunoda!!
