Welcome to Sunday’s edition of the RaceFans round-up.
Comment of the day
Was yesterday the start of a great season for Yuki Tsunoda?
Without wishing any ill to either Lawson or Hadjar, I would really like to see Yuki totally dominate both of them this season and be a constant concern for Max/Red Bull.
I feel that the Red Bull elite have treated Yuki very poorly.

Hamilton talks of the pressure of racing as a young lad, and meanwhile F1 teams are plastering 10 year old ‘singings’ on their social media.
Not sure what needs to happen, but the whole speak needs a wake up call.

Thanks for the Cotd.
I thought Yuki was going to exceed my wildest dreams for a while there during the race ;)

If you are highly functional, you are not depressed. You are maybe not dealing with something, or avoidant, or something but its probably not depression. Depression is lying in bed all day and your life going down the drain. This guy does not exhibit having depression.
If there is anything that I could say, is maybe that hes’ too vigilant or interested in what other people think or trying to manage expectations, probably because hes been very career oriented for so long, that he might have missed ‘growing up in certain dimensions’. And to that, there are books, interesting thinkers like Carl Jung, philosophy, doing different stuff, having fun, and people you can trust. The later being the hardest when you have had so much success and a large bank account.
