168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda has questioned RB’s strategy choices - and their decision to use team orders 👍- in the season-opening Bahrain Grand Pr🔯ix.

Tsunoda looked on course to finish in the top 10 at the Bahrain International Circuit but a decision to stop later than the likes of168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Zhou Guanyu and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kevin Magnussen dropped him down the order.

Unable to overtake the Haas of Magnussen on track, Tsunoda soon had teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo - on soft tyres - for close company.

Tsunoda was then given multiple instructions from RB to move ov✃er, which 𒀰he initially ignored, before complying.

Like♚ Tsunoda, Ricciardo was unable to get the move done, finishing the race in 13th in ෴the end.

Speaking after the race, Tsunoda was unimpr♍essed with the strategy he was given and the later team orders.

“I think strategy didn’t work as well,” he said. I was in the points, drivi🍌ng well and suddenly I dropped to the back of the points. We have to review what’s happened there. I think it has happened before to be honest.

“Well we are fighting outside of the points anyway - P13, P14. I was just overtaking Magnussen, side-by-side, then I was told ‘swap the car’ in the first few laps. To be honest, it’s har𒐪d to understand.

“Maybe there wa💜s some thoughts on their mind. I have to understand. In the end he didn’t overtake as well.”

Ricciardo revealed that the idea of team o🎃rders was discussed ahead of the race as it was likely he’d be on the softs in the final laps given he ✱had a spare set of tyres.

“So I was on new softs, he was on the hard,” he added. “This is something we talk about before the race. We are in the strategy meetings together - there’s no secrets. It was quite clear there was a very good chance I’d be finishing the race on a better tyre. If I𝓀 was coming on a speed advantage then the call would happen.

“It happ🍌ened too late. I think we got the call close enough but then the reaction was too♏ late. 

“With a few laps to☂ go, we lose a few precious laps and then we’re fighting, then every lap I am losing a bit more of my tyre.

“I was a bit disappointed in that b♔ut as far as I aware the team made the call so it’s up to Yuki to move over.”
