Yuki Tsunoda hopes to perform better in qualifying

      The Austrian Grand Prix is one of the home stages for Red Bull Racing. Team drivers Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda are counting on a productive weekend in Spielberg.

      Max Verstappen: "We are returning to Europe, and the race in Austria has always been special for the team, so there will be a lot of events this week. It's always nice to feel the support of the stands and the Orange Army. To thank you for your support, I will wear a special design helmet and blue racing boots on stages in Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands.

      We want to maintain the momentum gained in Canada and continue to work hard on fine-tuning improvements. It's interesting to drive on this track – the lap is short, but with good overtaking opportunities. I hope we will do well in qualifying and achieve a good result."

      Yuki Tsunoda: "I'm looking forward to returning to Europe and our home race in Austria. Performing at the Red Bull Ring as a Red Bull driver is always special, because you hear the support from the stands every time you leave the pits.

      This week, it's going to come down to stable performances and getting the most out of the car. The last few weeks have been difficult for me on the track, and I intend to return to the higher positions on the grid where the team should be.

      Saturday will be a key day, and the team and I have worked hard to ensure that we are successful in qualifying and fighting for the top positions in the race. I've already shown several times that I can break through the peloton, so now I need to start higher to fight for the positions where I should be in the final laps."
