Racing Bulls boss Alan Permane stated that the team is not in a hurry to disclose its 2026 Formula 1 driver line-up, which has left Liam Lawson and other drivers uncertain about their futures. Max Verstappen is the only driver confirmed for next season, with Hadjar expected to join him, potentially opening up two spots at Racing Bulls. Lawson, Yuki Tsunoda, and Arvid Lindblad are all being considered for the team as they aim to defend their sixth place in the Constructors’ standings. Permane dismissed claims that the decision is being delayed due to new regulations, emphasizing the importance of stability and the ongoing battles in both the team’s and Red Bull’s championship standings. Despite the emphasis on experience, Permane noted that the new regulations will level the playing field in terms of driver experience, with simulator work becoming crucial post-season.
