It is scarcely believable that Red Bull has opted to replace Liam Lawson with Yuki Tsunoda after just two grands prix.

But that is the decision that has reportedly been taken following a meeting of Red Bull's management team in Dubai en route back from the Chinese Grand Prix.

With immediate effect for Tsunoda's home race in Japan in early April, he will be Max Verstappen's team-mate in the RB21, whilst Lawson will return to Racing Bulls to partner Isack Hadjar
