Marko told ORF, as cited by Motorsport, that a decision on Tsunoda will come "around" the Mexican Grand Prix after a short review period. The evaluation window spans six events from the Netherlands to Mexico, covering Italy, Azerbaijan, Singapore and the United States. Tsunoda left Zandvoort qualifying in Q2 and starts 12th, while Racing Bulls drivers Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson qualified ahead in fourth and eighth. Season form remains a concern, with Tsunoda on 10 points in 18th place in the drivers' standings and trailing Lawson's points tally. Coverage notes extra uncertainty from Red Bull ending its Honda partnership, while reports add that Laurent Mekies both knows Tsunoda well and has ensured the same-spec car updates as Verstappen.
