Late change to Miami Sprint grid after Red Bull penalty

03/05/2025 10:42

Yuki Tsunoda is to start the 2025 F1 Miami Grand Prix Sprint race from the pit-lane after Red Bull broke parc ferme on his car.  Tsunoda was due to start in 18th place after being eliminated in SQ1 after confusion involving team-mate Max Verstappen who was slow at the final corner. Tsunoda hesitated, and this meant he failed to make the line for his final flying lap by about one second.  Given his lowly position, Red Bull has elected to make set-up changes to the RB21, namely to the suspension.  This means he will start from the pit-lane, with Gabriel Bortoleto and Ollie Bearman both shuffling forward one place.
