Tsunoda: I won't always be asked to give Max a win.

Tsunoda: I won't always be asked to give Max a win.

      At the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend, Yuki Tsunoda will hold his first race as part of Red Bull Racing. On the eve of the home stage, Yuki visited BBC Radio 5 Live and told what task the team's management had set for him.

      Yuki Tsunoda: "Ultimately, Red Bull Racing is aiming for Max to win the individual title. He has proven that he has good potential to become a world champion, although at the moment Red Bull still has some problems.

      As for me, Christian Horner wants me to show results as close to Max's as possible.

      Of course, in some races I will help my team-mate with strategy. But Horner promised me that in some situations, if I ride ahead of Max, it will not mean that Christian will definitely ask me to switch positions and give Max the victory."
