2023 Fantasy Outlook
After finishing 14th in the series standings in 2021, Tsunoda slipped backward a touch in 2022. He scored just 13 points compared to 32 his rookie season. Some of that slip is due to missing the second race of the season in Saudi Arabia with an engine failure on his way to the grid. That was just one example of Alpha Tauri not living up to their own expectations last season after a competitive 2021, which affected Tsunoda's results. He had six other DNFs following that failure to start. Five of those were crashes, which is where the driver can work to eliminate this year. Despite the struggles he managed to finish in the top 10 four times last season, including the first race in Bahrain. The good news for him and the team is that his single-lap speed appears to be there. Tsunoda's average start was 13.6 with five of those being inside the first five rows. With fewer crashes in 2023, Tsunoda could be a reliable fantasy option in the mid-field battle this season. Read Past Outlooks
Grabs Point at Emilia-Romagna GP
Formula One
May 20, 2024
Tsunoda finished 10th in the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix Formula 1 race at Imola on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
Tsunoda would start P7 after another strong qualifying effort on a Formula 1 weekend. The RB team driver would be among those who would pit early at lap 12 and execute a long final stint on hard tyres. He would slip to P15 and work his way back up to eighth-place by lap 38. However, the long final stint would see his tyre grip go away and Tsunoda would get picked off by both Sergio Perez and Lance Stroll down the stretch to fade to an eventual P10 by the finish. The good news is that he picked up 1 point for his day's efforts at Imola.
