Super Formula: Liam Lawson’s mindset unchanged by F1 events
Since his last race in the Japanese championship, Lawson has been competing as a substitute driver for AlphaTauri in five Grands Prix. However, he has recently learned that he will not be a regular driver for the team in 2024. This means that he will spend next year on the sidelines, while being on call for both AlphaTauri and Red Bull. Despite this news, Lawson believes that his performance this weekend at Suzuka will still be taken into consideration by Red Bull when making future plans for him. He acknowledges the pressure from Red Bull, but states that it doesn’t change regardless of whether he will be in Formula One next year or not. Lawson heads into the Suzuka double-header trailing behind Ritomo Miyata by eight points in the championship standings. Although his recent experience in Formula One at Suzuka could be seen as an advantage, Lawson does not believe it will significantly impact his performance in Super Formula. He expects to make adjustments to his driving style during Friday’s practice session to better suit the Super Formula car.
