Verstappen enjoys padel with new teammate Tsunoda in Bahrain!

The second Grand Prix during this current tripleheader is set to be hosted in Bahrain, where the two Red Bull Racing teammates went to play padel, after he already shared the court with his ex-teammate Daniel Ricciardo in Melbourne.

The sport is a very popular game among the drivers, as Fernando Alonso, Pierre Gasly, Lando Norris and George Russell also play quite regularly among others.

Entering the weekend in Sakhir, the defending world champion only trails Lando Norris by a single point in the drivers' standings, while Oscar Piastri is in third position, 12 points behind the Dutchman.

That is thanks to Verstappen's great victory at the Suzuka Circuit, after he put the RB21 on pole position in qualifying.

Yuki Tsunoda on the other hand had a more difficult weekend. The Japanese driver showed promising signs until Q1, but he got eliminated in Q2.

During his home Grand Prix, similarly to others, he was barely able to gain positions on track. He eventually finished in P12.
