Yuki Tsunoda claims finding ‘right setup’ in Monza would be ‘difficult’ for RB
RB will have to attempt to score better results to build a good lead to the rivals in the championship standings. Additionally, the Monza circuit had recently been resurfaced. Hence, the Japanese recalled this fact and noted that none of the teams knew what to expect. As a result, the 24-year-old asserted finding the right setup for the chassis would be difficult for everyone on the track including RB.
The whole circuit has been completely re-paved, so none of the teams really know what to expect. Although it could provide more grip than in the past, which will have a domino effect on tire performance. It will be difficult to find the right setup, because the circuit evolves very quickly from one session to another.Yuki Tsunoda said as reported by gpblog
The circuit of the Italian GP is the final real high-speed circuit in the remainder of the 2024 calendar. The teams have continued to attempt their best to get the best setup for the race. Apart from this, Tsunoda and Ricciardo have continued to showcase a close battle to overcome one another throughout the season.
