Nico Rosberg reckons he has spotted a chance in Yuki Tsunoda’s demeanour after Laurent Mekies replaced Christian Horner at Red Bull.

While the reason for Horner's ousting has not been revealed, Red Bull senior advisor Helmut Marko has pointed out that performance concerns led to his exit, and that the decision was taken by the managing director of Red Bull GmbH, Oliver Mintzlaff. Newsweek Sports reported his comments:

F 1 is still reeling from the news that Red Bull have sacked Christian Horner, with the team experiencing their first ever race weekend free of his immediate influence at the Belgian Grand Prix. The team made the stunning decision earlier this month, leaving the kind of leadership void the organization has never heretofore experienced.
