F1 2025 Japan GP Thursday: F1 Reacts To The Lawson/Tsunoda Swap

Mark Mann-Bryans and Jake Boxall-Legge report from the Suzuka International Circuit for media day at the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix. Unsurprisingly, the main story is Red Bull and Racing Bulls' driver swap of Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda, which is the key protagonists' first chance to talk directly to the media on the issue. The pair discuss Lawson's defiance despite the apparent career setback and the sympathetic reactions of the other drivers when posed the question. There's also reaction to McLaren and their new attitude of being the "hunted" rather than the "hunters" after their 1-2 finish in China, and Haas bringing new floor upgrades to the Japanese Grand Prix, and the difference in approach to car development from team prinical Ayao Komatsu, and previous boss Guenther Stiener.
