No longer a 'bridesmaid': Yuki Tsunoda prepares for the Red Bull pressure cooker

Lawson had three Q1 eliminations and failed to score points in Australia and China.
Helmut Marko said, "It is true that the RB21 is difficult to drive,", acknowledging the car's challenges.
Tsunoda, after simulator sessions and positive comments, will now drive the RB21, hoping to maintain his form and potentially podium.
