“As we’ve seen since he joined us last year, Yuki is a very talented driver and has improved a lot this season The pace he has shown recently is clear evidence of a steep learning curve, which proves he deserves a seat in F1 & I still expect some strong results from him in the last 6 races of 2022. As I always say, a driver needs at least 3 years to fully get to grips with F1, so I’m pleased he’s been given the time to show his full potential. In addition, it’s a testament to Dr Marko & his driver Programme that we’re able to bring these young talents up from the junior categories & develop them.”
