After his performance in Monza I was expecting better results from DEV. His qualifying times are okay, that AT just looks slow on Saturday, but he just doesn't seem to have the race pace on any track. Tsunoda generally seems to at least sometimes be able to squeeze results out of the car while De Vries stagnates.

It’s a shame. So many good results in other fields but just isn’t getting it in F1. I’m really glad to see Tsunoda step up to the plate and bring that AT into the points as a leader of the team. Also, still love hearing his hothead attitude on the radio!
