F1 star sends out call to rival teams: 'They should hire me'Yuki Tsunoda has made a case for himself to be hired by rival Formula 1 teams for the 2027 season following a commendable performance at the Dutch Grand Prix, where he finished 11th. This race marked his first start in the new generation of F1 cars, stepping in for Liam Lawson, who was called up to Red Bull due to an injury to Isack Hadjar. Despite his strong showing, Tsunoda currently lacks a seat for the upcoming season and may revert to his reserve role if Hadjar returns to racing soon.
Tsunoda expressed confidence in his abilities and believes he showcased his talent during the race, competing closely with top drivers. He highlighted that while he did not score points, he demonstrated enough skill to warrant consideration from teams looking to finalize their lineups. As the F1 landscape continues to evolve with contract extensions, Tsunoda's future remains uncertain, but he remains hopeful about securing a position in the sport.gpfans.comSun 30 Aug · 07:30 UTC
