VCARB under intense pressure: 'We are no longer a top midfield team'

Things can move fast in Formula 1. One moment it seems Visa Cash App RB is able to connect with a sub-topper like Aston Martin, the next the Italian team already has to look back. Yuki Tsunoda is aware that Haas F1 has been on a meteoric rise in recent weeks, suddenly putting sixth place in the constructors' championship under a lot of pressure.

"We also have to keep an eye on Haas," argues Tsunoda, who realises that the American team is only four points behind VCARB. But - the Japanese believes - on the other hand, Aston Martin are also still in sight. Although the margin is 37 points in favour of the green brigade, they are currently going through a tough period.

That could happen as early as next weekend in Hungary, when the 13th Grand Prix of the season is scheduled at the Hungaroring. It is still unknown whether VCARB will introduce updates for the cars of Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo then.
