Yuki Tsunoda scored in four of his five United States Grand Prix starts, which is a better conversion rate than most of the grid manages at this circuit.
Five starts, 14 points, a best finish of seventh. The totals are small, but almost none of it was wasted.
Four years in the junior car, then one in the senior one
The 2021 debut brought ninth from tenth on the grid, a lap down but inside the points. 2022 added a tenth from nineteenth, which was a genuine recovery, and 2023 an eighth from eleventh with the fastest lap attached.
Three visits, three scores, all with the team then racing as AlphaTauri.
2024 broke the run. Fourteenth, a lap down, from tenth on the grid was his only blank weekend at the Circuit of the Americas.
2025 was the best of them. Seventh from thirteenth on the grid in the Red Bull, six points, and his highest finish here by two places. He was moved back to Racing Bulls for 2026 and is not in the car for this year's race.

Every United States Grand Prix start, with the grid slot it came from and what it was worth.
| Season | Grid | Finish | Points | Team |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 10 | P9 | 2 | AlphaTauri |
| 2022 | 19 | P10 | 1 | AlphaTauri |
| 2023 | 11 | P8 | 5 | AlphaTauri |
| 2024 | 10 | P14 | 0 | RB |
| 2025 | 13 | P7 | 6 | Red Bull |
Five starts, five finishes, and no sixth
No win, no podium, no pole, but also no retirements, and four scoring finishes from five attempts. As at Baku, his best Austin result lines up exactly with the best car he has had here.
He is not on the grid for the 2026 race, so the record stands at five starts and 14 points. On a per-visit basis it is one of the more efficient small records in this series.
