We discuss Red Bull’s imminent replacement of Liam Lawson with Yuki Tsunoda in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.

Jon Noble joins Edd Straw to discuss the move and explain what it says about Red Bull’s driver strategy.

We discuss why Lawson couldn’t extract the pace from the Red Bull RB21 that Max Verstappen can and what it was about his progress that persuaded the team to abandon him so quickly.

And with Tsunoda now having the chance of a lifetime, we ask if he’s got what it takes to make a success of his opportunity.
