MODERATORS
It was expected, but not THIS fast.
But why? Heโs shown before in the Williams that he can perform with a decent car. The AT is simply shit, Tsunoda isnโt doing much better and itโs not that he got to where he is without a few fuckups/meltdowns of his own.
EDIT: as burn points out below, he didnโt race for Mercedes but for Williams, Iโve updated my post to reflect the correct team
It was expected because the negativeness in the media and from Marko/Horner. I saw a interview last week and when Marko was asked any question about de Vries his face really turned sour. Yes the AT is shit, but Tsunoda is outperforming de Vries most of the time. My guess was that he would be out before Zandvoort but not before the summer break.
@wes @R05 Could it be that Nick burned bridges somewhere, which is why he was immediately ditched?
