Yuki Tsunoda Changes Management After Red Bull Promotion Snub

Yuki Tsunoda has changed his management team after being overlooked for a promotion to the Red Bull senior team, with Liam Lawson receiving the nod instead. The 24-year-old Japanese driver parted ways with his long-time managers, Mario Miyakawa and Luis Alvarez, and has now enlisted Diego Menchaca, who aims to build a strong relationship with Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko. Tsunoda expressed optimism about this transition, emphasizing the importance of on-track performance to secure his future in Formula 1. Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has indicated that if Tsunoda cannot secure a promotion by the end of the 2025 season, it may be time for him to exit the Red Bull family. As he enters his fifth season, Tsunoda will partner with rookie Isack Hadjar, with the expectation of leading the Racing Bulls team. This management shake-up underscores the critical nature of the upcoming season for Tsunoda’s career aspirations.
