Yuki Tsunoda's performance and confidence in Japan was a big step forward from where Liam Lawson was with Red Bull

Honda was very happy that Yuki Tsunoda made his debut for Red Bull Racing at his home race, the Japanese Grand Prix. A debut without points, does not dampen Koji Watanabe's outlook. Honda Racing's president thought their driver did 'fantastic' in his first ever outing for the Austrian team - something the fans agreed with as they chose him as the driver of the day.

SUZUKA, Japan — Yuki Tsunoda finally has his promotion at Red Bull. That was difficult enough, elevated to the top team last week as Liam Lawson was demoted to Red Bull's No. 2 Formula 1 team — Racing Bulls — after failing to score points in the season's first two races.
