Yuki Tsunoda seen in Max Verstappen’s world-beating car as Red Bull roll back tactics

Yuki Tsunoda has been spotted driving the legendary RB19 car at Silverstone ahead of the Miami Grand Prix. Red Bull’s 2023 challenger won all but one full-length race thanks to the heroics of Max Verstappen and the strong early-season form of Sergio Perez. Tsunoda was driving the RB19 as part of a TPC (Testing of Previous Cars) day. Each F1 team gets 20 days per season, eight of which can be designated to the incumbent full-time drivers.
The tests use cars that are at least two years old, and these must be set up to mimic the performance and tuning of that period. Aside from helping rookies and development drivers get experience behind the wheel, TPC days are often used to help new arrivals get up to speed in their machinery. For example, Ferrari used up Lewis Hamilton’s entire four-day allocation during pre-season to ease the transitional phase after leaving Mercedes.
