AlphaTauri confirmed Yuki Tsunoda will continue to drive for it in 2023 on Thursday morning, giving the Japanese driver a third season on the Formula 1 grid.

In the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, we delve into Tsunoda’s progress and his strengths and weaknesses as a driver.

Mark Hughes and Valentin Khorounzhiy join Edd Straw for the discussion, which also delves into the potential alternatives to Tsunoda that Red Bull could have considered.

And with Pierre Gasly potentially on his way to Alpine, we also discuss who is likely to line up alongside Tsunoda should his current team-mate move on.
