P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Liam Lawson will have the chance to earn a promotion to a Red Bull Formula 1 drive should he impress in his spell with RB, team boss Christian Horner has indicated.
Lawson will be competing in the remaining six F1 rounds this season for Red Bull Racing, replacing Daniel Ricciardo. This opportunity gives him a chance to prove himself and potentially secure a spot as Yuki Tsunoda’s partner for the 2025 season. With Sergio Perez facing challenges in the second Red Bull seat, Lawson’s performance could potentially position him as a strong contender for a higher team role. Red Bull team principal, Christian Horner, highlighted the importance of evaluating Lawson’s potential for the team’s future plans. While there is a focus on Perez’s return to form, Ricciardo remains a possible consideration if neither Lawson nor Perez meet expectations. Horner emphasized the uncertain nature of the sport and the need to always be prepared for future developments in the team’s driver lineup.
