Lawson aiming to ‘make the most’ of last F1 deputy appearance
New Zealander Liam Lawson has been filling in for Daniel Ricciardo since the Dutch Grand Prix due to Ricciardo’s hand injury. Lawson has had impressive performances, including a ninth-place finish in Singapore. Although he narrowly missed out on points in Suzuka, Lawson was happy with his start and is focused on improving his performance. Ricciardo is expected to return in Austin, leaving Lawson uncertain about his future races. Lawson is unsure if the Qatar circuit will suit AlphaTauri’s car but is excited to drive on a high-speed track. He acknowledges that the weekend will be challenging, especially since it’s a Sprint weekend and he has never driven in Qatar before. Lawson’s goal remains to race in Formula 1, and he is determined to end his temporary stint on a high note.
