Liam Lawson bewildered by Miami chaos: ‘I honestly can’t understand how that’s possible’
Liam Lawson expressed frustration with the confusion surrounding sprint qualifying at the Miami Grand Prix, as Alex Albon advanced to SQ2 despite a track limits violation allegedly committed at his expense. The Williams driver was not initially investigated, but he has been summoned by the stewards since. If the investigation had occurred earlier, Lawson might have had a chance to continue in the session after being P16 in SQ1 and subsequently eliminated. Despite returning to his car, Lawson received no reprieve, with the Racing Bulls team explaining the situation to him. Lawson voiced his frustration towards the race director and stewards, emphasizing Albon’s track limits violation and the late realization by the FIA. The sequence of unfortunate events leading to the confusion began with Lawson misplacing his car during the first segment of sprint qualifying, culminating in a disappointing outcome due to a series of setbacks during SQ1. Despite these setbacks, Lawson noted that the car had shown improvement, lamenting the missed opportunity.
