Liam Lawson is one of a select number of drivers on the grid to have experienced wet conditions since the new regulations were introduced.
Liam Lawson anticipates that the Miami Grand Prix could be challenging if the weather forecast for race day, predicting heavy showers, turns out to be accurate. The Miami International Autodrome has enjoyed clear skies and high temperatures throughout the event, but this is set to change come Sunday. The forecast calls for heavy rain, thunder, and lightning, prompting the FIA to prepare contingency plans. Following a five-week break, F1 is making a much-anticipated return with all eyes on the race; however, the weather may prolong the wait. For many drivers on the grid, Sunday’s rain would mark their first encounter with wet conditions under the new regulations. Liam Lawson pointed out the difficulties in comparing the impact of wet weather across different circuits, recalling challenges faced in races like the Miami Sprint and Las Vegas. When asked about his expectations for driving in the rain, Lawson acknowledged the variability of track conditions and the limited experience the drivers have had with wet weather, emphasizing the learning curve they face if inclement weather strikes.
