Calls grow for ‘most logical’ option to take Sargeant’s Williams seat
Anthony Davidson, a former F1 driver and current Sky pundit, believes that Liam Lawson would be a great option for Williams. Lawson has performed well as a stand-in for the injured Daniel Ricciardo at AlphaTauri. Davidson thinks that a short-term deal for Lawson would also benefit Red Bull, as he would otherwise have a year on the sidelines in 2024. Many people in the paddock share Davidson’s opinion on Lawson’s skills. Williams could benefit from having Lawson, a known quantity who has performed consistently well. Davidson also suggests that Lawson’s presence at Williams could be beneficial for Red Bull, as they have many drivers fighting for limited seats. However, the downside for Williams would be that they would be training up a driver only to lose him in the future. Davidson also discusses Logan Sargeant and his struggles to perform in the F1 environment compared to his successes in other categories.
