Yuki Tsunoda was left furious during qualifying for the Brazilian Grand Prix on Friday, calling for a penalty for Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton after he was eliminated in Q1.<\/p>\n
The AlphaTauri driver’s best lap time was only good enough for P16 during Q1, sending him out of contention along with team-mate Daniel Ricciardo, both Alfa Romeo drivers and Williams’ Logan Sargeant.<\/p>\n
Replays showed the Japanese driver was impeded by Alpine’s Pierre Gasly on the pit exit with Tsunoda only marginally avoiding contact with the outside wall.<\/p>\n
However, fans were played Tsunoda’s team radio message after his elimination, in which he exclaimed: “Penalty, that was a penalty. Lewis Hamilton. Lewis Hamilton.”<\/p>\n
