Who knows what the cars will be like next year. At least that will be a reset and he probably won’t get yanked after 2 races.

It may depend on how much Newey DNA is in it? I'm guessing that they finally fix the issue that has been around since at least Gasly in 2019, but yeah, no one knows until it hits the track. Good luck Hadjar!
I'm a little surprised that Yuki will be in the reserve role, but he was given no time to find another situation. Albon took this path and Red Bull helped him get a seat at Williams, so maybe they will help Yuki get another seat for 2027.

Might as well be a new team besides Max at this point it seems.

Let's be honest, has Yuki shown that he deserves anything other than a reserve role? I honestly can't think of a single race where I have ever thought, in Yuki's entire career, where I said, "You know, Yuki really drove a hell of a race and shouldn't have finished that high."
I think I'd take every driver on the grid except for Stroll and maybe Colapinto over him. And possibly feel different if I ever saw Colapinto in a decent car. I mean he has 33(!!!!!) points in a Red Bull.
Point is, I think Yuki sucks

I meant I was surprised he was in a reserve role at Red Bull and not completely let go.
As for whether Yuki has ever impressed in a race, here are a few off the top of my head:
1. 2025 Australia. Yuki qualified P5 in the VCARB, and IIRC he was running P5 late in the race but when everyone else pitted, VCARB left him out and ruined his race, dropping him out of the points. Yuki drove a hell of a race on a wet track but was let down by his team.
2. 2024 Brazil. Yuki qualified P3 and finished P7 in the VCARB, and IIRC he would have finished P5 if not for Alpine's pit gambit that got them on the podium. Yuki drove a hell of a race on a wet track.
3. 2023 Netherlands. Yuki qualified P14 in the VCARB but was in a legit P6 position leading up the 2nd pit stop. IIRC he was just in front of Hamilton. But when everyone around pitted, VCARB left him out and ruined his race, dropping him out of the points. Hamilton finished P6. Yuki would have finished somewhere around P6-P8 if the team didn't let him down. Yuki drove a hell of race.
Feel free to watch the replay of these races and tell me if you agree or not.
