Liam Lawson has endured a tumultuous campaign in F1, but something has “clicked” for the New Zealander of late, despite a difficult weekend in Singapore.
Liam Lawson admitted struggling to perform consistently at Racing Bulls earlier in the F1 season, especially after being demoted from Red Bull where he couldn’t match his teammate Isack Hadjar.
However, things took a positive turn for Lawson after the Austrian Grand Prix, where he started to show improvement and became a stronger competitor against Hadjar.
As Hadjar is expected to partner Max Verstappen next year, Lawson finds himself fighting for his F1 future alongside Yuki Tsunoda, while F2 driver Arvid Lindblad is also eyeing a seat at Racing Bulls in the future.
Reflecting on his challenging weekend at the Singapore Grand Prix, Lawson mentioned in an interview with Formula 1 that finding comfort in the car and putting all the details together has been crucial for his recent success.
