Ex-F1 driver Ralf Schumacher𒁃 has urged Yuki Tsunoda to reject a move to Red Bull as Liam Lawson’s replacement, saying “he can’t do himself any favours with it”.

After another difficult weekend for Lawson at the Chinese Grand Prix, Red Bull reportedly 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结𝓡果历史:held a meeting where they decided to replace him.

They reportedly intend to replace Lawson with Tsunod🎉a, who has impressed at Racing Bulls in early 2025.

But they haven't confirmed these reports yet.

Lawson has struggled in hisꦐ two races for Red Bull, failing to make it out of Q1 in Australia or China.

Schumacher beli💟ꩲeves Tsunoda should turn down a potential Red Bull promotion.

“That’s not quite confirmed yꦍet✅, but that’s probably the way it is,” Schumacher said to Sky Germany.

“And that has to be sai🎀d, is unbelievable. Above all, incredibly bad from a management poi🀅nt of view. I don’t understand that at all.

“You destabilize the good Racing Bulls team, who are finally in a good position with both drivers, and in my opinion, you will burn Tsunoda, who is better, but w𝔉ho also has no chance against Max.

“And Lawson then goes back to the Racing Bulls, he should build up there again. It’s kind of pure chaos at Red Bull. So not only that the main𓃲 team is too slow, but that they also swap the riders like a charade. I think that’s unbelievable.

“If I was Tsunoda’s manager, I wouldn’t recommend him to go ther𝔉e. At the m🐓oment, Racing Bulls is the better car and Tsunoda is getting on really well with it. He can’t do himself any favours with it.”
