Video: Who is new AlphaTauri driver Yuki Tsunoda?

AlphaTauri announced on Wednesday that Japanese driver Yuki Tsunoda will replace Daniil Kvyat at the team for 2021 but how much do you know about the 20-year-old?

Tsunoda has risen through the ranks at lightning speed, spending just a single year in both Formula 3 and F2.

Driving for Carlin in F2 this year, Tsunoda finished third in the standings behind Haas-bound Mick Schumacher and 2021 Ferrari test driver Callum Ilott. As the highest placed rookie in the standings, Tsunoda won the Anthoine Hubert award.

Before Tsunoda joins the grid, here is a key-notes guide to his career so far.
