Yuki Tsunoda is learning from the best. After suggesting that his defense improved after watching Fernando Alonso’s video, Tsunoda’s inner Sebastian Vettel seems to have woken up as he helps the people out in Imola by getting his hands dirty. Remember how Vettel stayed back, helped clean the stands, and took the trash out after races? Yuki is doing the same thing for the people in desperate need at Imola. The Japanese seem to have won over the fans with his actions. Let’s see how things went down.

Earlier this week massive rain showers and thunderstorms hit the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, causing flooding in multiple areas. F1 took the sensible decision and canceled the GP which was supposed to be held this weekend in Imola. Many teams and drivers took to social media to explain their grief and hope for the well-being of the people living in the Emilia-Romagna region. Nevertheless, Yuki Tsunoda had different ideas for helping out.

While Yuki Tsunoda’s radio messages may portray him to be someone with an aggressive personality, his recent deeds and speeches suggest otherwise. Tsunoda recently explained how he looked up to Fernando Alonso as his Hero and was humble enough to acknowledge that he’s been watching the Spaniard’s videos to learn more about defending. This humble personality was showcased recently as a post appeared on Twitter. 

Post the Emilia Romagna floods, Tsunoda was seen cleaning up the city of Faenza in the Emilia-Romagna region. The AlphaTauri factory is based in Faenza and Tsunoda, along with his teammates were seen getting their hands dirty. In a Tweet posted by ESPN, the AlphaTauri men and the Japanese driver are seen with shovels and brooms in their hands with the caption, “Yuki Tsunoda helping clean up Faenza, the city where AlphaTauri’s factory is based in Italy ❤️”
