Tsunoda set for AlphaTauri F1 run in Abu Dhabi test

Yuki Tsunoda is set to get behind the wheel of a Formula 1 car for the first time at December’s young driver test in Abu Dhabi. Tsunoda, backed jointly by Red Bull and Honda, currently holds fourth place in the Formula 2 standings and claimed his maiden victory at Silverstone. He made the move to European competition in 2019, placing ninth in Formula 3, after winning the 2018 Formula 4 title in his native Japan. Formula 1 has not had a Japanese representative since Kamui Kobayashi’s departure from the grid at the end of 2014, though Nobuharu Matsushita tested for Sauber, while Naoki Yamamoto ran FP1 at Suzuka for Toro Rosso last season.
