Liam Lawson has tipped Yuki Tsunoda to feel “more comfortable” on his debut for Red Bull at the F1 Japanese Grand Prix.

After just two races alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen at Red Bull, Lawson has bee꧟n꧟ demoted to Racing Bulls for Suzuka.

Lawson 🐈struggled considerably for overall speed in his two races for t✱he team in Australia and China.

The Kiwi wa♒s well off the pace at Albert Park before crashing out in treacherous conditions in the race.

More worryingly for Lawson, he qualified 20th and last in ⛎the two qualifying sessions in Shanghai.

As a re꧋sult, Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda have swapped seats from this weekend’s race.

In the pre-race FIA press conference on Thursday, Lawson 🦄explained🅷 why Tsunoda should be more “comfortable” than he was in China.

“I mean, China was a bit more unique, I would say,” Lawson said w💞hen reflecting on his strugglꦉes.

“For the race, we tried something with the setup, and it was quite aggressive. It was to get some answers and to build a direction with the car. We went with that, and in the end, it didn’t ▨work too well in Ch꧅ina, specifically with the degradation that we had on the fronts.The car itself felt quite good but on the tyres we were struggling.

“Coming here, it’s a new place. For Yuki, it’s a great opportunity on a 🌼track he’s done a lot. I am sure he will probably be more comfortable I would say. I am sure they’ve done work over the last week in the short br🧜eak to try and work on improving things.”

Lawson hoped issues were “taken into consideration more”

Lawson had hoped that factors that have impacted 🔴his performance at Red Bull woul𝔉d be “taken into consideration more.”

Reliability 💞issues in pre-season testing prevented him from completing a long run on the second day of running in Bahrꦏain.

H﷽e’s never driven at Albert Park before while the race w🔯as wet.

Similarly, with China - it wa🌠s a sprint weekend, meaning he had just 60 minutes to get up to speed.

“In Formula 1, it’s motorsport. You have issues and that’s part ꦫ[of it]. Especially with these cars that are pushing the limits like they are,” Lawson added. “I may have hoped that wo๊uld be taken into consideration more and I think that’s why forme it was important to come to a place that I’ve raced before and driven before.

“Melbourne and China are both tough tracks and the way the weeken꧂d went they weren’t the smoothest. It🌳’s motorsport. The decision wasn’t mine but I will make the most of it.”
