Yuki Tsunoda criticises RB after “hard to understand” Daniel Ricciardo team order
Yuki Tsunoda was frustrated with the Visa Cash App RB F1 team 🅷after the Bahrainꦍ Grand Prix.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda has questioned RB’s𝕴 strategy c🔯hoices - and their decision to use team orders - in the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix.
Tsunoda looked on course to finish in the top 10 at the Bahrain International Circuit but a decision to stop later than the likes of168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Zhou Guanyu and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen dropped him down the order.
Unable to overtake the Haas of Magnussen on track, Tsunoda soon had teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo - on soft tyres - for close company.
Tsunoda was then given multiple instructions from RB to move o🌠ver, which he initially ignored, before complying.
Like Tsunoda, Ricciardo was unable to get the 💫move done, finishing the race in 13th in 🎀the end.
Speakin꧋g after the ra❀ce, Tsunoda was unimpressed with the strategy he was given and the later team orders.
“I think strategy didn’t work as well,” he said. I was in the points, driving well and sudden🐭ly I dropped to the back of the points. We have to review what’s ༺happened there. I think it has happened before to be honest.
“Well we are f💫ighting outside of the points anyway - P13, P14. I was just overtaking Magnussen, side-by-side, then I was told ‘swap the car’ in the first few laps. To be honest, it’s hard ﷽to understand.
“Maybe there was some thoughts on their mind. I have to understanಌd. In the end he didn’t overtake as well.”

Ricciardo revealed that the idea of team orders was discussed ahead of the r🍸ace as it was likely he’d be on the softs in the final laps given he had a spare set of tyres.
“So I was on new softs, he was on the hard,” he added. “This is something we talk about before the race. We are in the strategy meetings together - there’s no secrets. It was quite clear there was a very good chance I’d be finishing the race on a better tyre. If I was coming on a speed advantage theꦅn the call would happen.
“It happened too late. I think we got the call close enough but then ꦛthe reaction was too late.&nbs💝p;
“With a few laps to go, we lose a few precious laps and thenꦿ we’re fighting, then every lap I am losing a bit more of my tyre.
“I was a bit disa🍰ppointed in that but as far as I aware the team made the call so it’s up to Yuki to move over.”
