Where is Tsunoda in the drivers' standings?
Tsunoda is currently 10th in the drivers' standings, enjoying a strong start to the 2024 season and acquiring a consistent haul of points for his team.
As a result of his impressive start to the season, the 24-year-old has received a contract extension into next year with RB.
However, Tsunoda has failed to score a point since the Monaco Grand Prix, and his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo has started to improve his results.
