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

Car No. 22 Racing Bulls-Honda RBPT

Misses Points in Season Finale

Formula One

December 10, 2024

Tsunoda finished 12th in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Lusail Circuit on Sunday evening.

ANALYSIS
The Team RB driver would start 11th on the grid in the final grand prix of the season and look to score points to close 2024 in Abu Dhabi. Tsunoda would have to engage some evasive maneuvers on lap 1 for spinning cars and he would slide to 17th-place by lap 2. It would be an uphill battle from there for Tsunoda. He would run a long opening stint and pit on lap 22 to grab track position, but that would be the last taste of points position for the day. He would fade to P12 over the closing laps and miss points in his final start of the season.
