Yuki Tsunoda suffered his latest Red Bull qualifying misery at the
Hungarian Grand Prix, following yet another Q1 elimination. It
marked a drastic u-turn from Belgium last week, where he achieved
his best qualifying result as a Red Bull driver in seventh. Red
Bull has struggled at the Hungaroring, although genuine progress
had been made by Tsunoda in comparison to Max Verstappen. Tsunoda
found himself in 16th at the end of the first part of qualifying,
just 0.024s shy of progressing to the next stage of qualifying.
Despite the unfortunate exit, Tsunoda was only 0.163s adrift of
Verstappen, who safely progressed in 11th. However, it is his
fourth Q1 exit in the past eight races. Joining the Red Bull driver
in the Q1 elimination places were Pierre Gasly, Esteban Ocon, Nico
Hulkenberg and Alex Albon.
