Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko announced that a decision regarding Liam Lawson’s future will be disclosed next month, amidst the current stability in the organization’s driver program. A recent meeting involving Marko and team principal Christian Horner resulted in the decision to retain Sergio Perez, avoiding potential promotions for Daniel Ricciardo or Yuki Tsunoda that could have created an opening for Lawson. Marko expressed confidence in Lawson’s abilities, hinting that his opportunity will come soon. Despite considering bringing Ricciardo back to Red Bull Racing, Marko mentioned that he did not meet the criteria due to inconsistent performance. The team decided to continue with Perez, aiming to provide him with a more stable car rather than solely blaming the driver for recent struggles, highlighting the difficulty of competing with Max Verstappen as a teammate.
