via f1oversteer.comHelmut Marko ended Yuki Tsunoda’s F1 comeback hopes with one of his final acts at Red BullYuki Tsunoda's hopes of returning to Formula 1 have diminished significantly, leading him to explore opportunities in IndyCar with Meyer Shank Racing. After a five-year stint in F1, Tsunoda's career was effectively halted when Helmut Marko blocked his move to Haas, which was seen as his best chance to re-enter the grid for the 2026 season.
