Yuki Tsunoda, the AlphaTauri driver, vented his frustration towards his team after being urged to increase his pace during treacherous conditions in the Monaco Grand Prix.
The race began under dry conditions, which persisted throughout the first half. However, as predicted by several teams, rain eventually arrived, leading to the deployment of intermediate tires. McLaren’s Lando Norris, benefiting from the tire choice, relentlessly pursued Tsunoda for ninth place.
In an attempt to motivate the Japanese racer, his race engineer suggested he push harder in the braking zones. Tsunoda responded angrily, saying, “I know but this brake sucks!” Despite the response, his race engineer persisted, leading Tsunoda to retort, “Are you trying to crash me or what?”
