Yuki Tsunoda's Sunday has just gone from bad to worse. As qualifying got underway it was announced by the Stewards he'd been handed a 10-place grid drop penalty for overtaking under red flag conditions. Then in qualifying it went from bad to worse.
Tsunoda's 100th race milestone is not going as well as the Japanese driver had hoped. As mentioned before Tsunoda has received a 10-place grid drop for tomorrow's race. And on the weekend when it was expected of him to be more on the pace since his RB21 was on the same spec as teammate Max Verstappen, he never truly showed the speed that could make Red Bull aspire for a good result with both cars, something they've not had for a while yet.

Tsunoda starts dead last: Eliminated by Hadjar

In the last moments of Q2, Tsunoda was sent out on a set of softs to try and find a ticket into Q3. However, although he did manage to sneak into the top 10, it was a momentary occurrence, as he was soon demoted from P9 to P10, and then to P11 by Racing Bulls rookie, Isack Hadjar.
