Driver of Red Bull, **[Yuki Tsunoda](https://f1-gate.com/yuki-tsunoda/f1_90861.html#google_vignette)**, finished the Brazilian Grand Prix in 17th place, experiencing one of the most challenging weekends of the season. After starting from 17th position, the Japanese racer quickly encountered difficulties, receiving a 10-second penalty for a collision with Aston Martin’s **Lance Stroll**, as well as an additional penalty for breaching the departure procedure.

“It was a tough day. To be honest, I didn’t even realize the moment of contact. I thought we were at a safe distance. I apologize to Stroll.

This was one of my worst weekends. Just when we managed to fix one issue, another would come up. We never found enough grip, and the car’s balance was constantly slipping away. It’s a really disappointing result,” Tsunoda expressed, as reported by **F1-Gate**.
