Re: F1 Formula Sports Racing - Sportsbet.io promotions & discussion thread
A Japanese racer in Japan GP. That connects. 
Is it really underperformance of other racers, or is this just a great plan for other purposes?

Well, he is young with a car that seems to be difficult to control. I think there's getting used to it first, but the higher-ups want fast results, although it's not a racer's problem, in my opinion. They just don't want to admit it.

Sources say the shareholders, plus Team Principal Christian Horner and Red Bull Motorsport Adviser Helmut Marko, agreed unanimously that Lawson should go back to Racing Bulls with immediate effect, ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix, with Tsunoda stepping up to replace him.
This was after they had looked at Lawson’s data from testing and the opening two races and concluded that he wasn’t performing to a high enough level, even if they conceded that it was a very difficult car to drive.
It's believed the team accepted that Lawson had also lost his confidence after conceding he couldn’t understand why he wasn’t able to get pace out of the car.

As they are in the fortunate position of having four seats, it’s easy enough for them to move Lawson back to Racing Bulls, where he was previously impressive, to rebuild his confidence, and give Tsunoda a shot after the Japanese racer’s very strong start to the 2025 campaign.
Those are nice words to make someone feel better, but I doubt Lawson believes that.
