Liam Lawson wants to see F1 make a major change to track design after being caught the victim in a growing recent F1 trend.
Liam Lawson believes F1 should return to the “old school” approach to track limits following incidents of drivers cutting Turn 1. In Mexico City, Lawson’s race was compromised when Carlos Sainz made a sudden move at Turn 1, damaging Lawson’s car. There is a trend of drivers exploiting run-off areas at Turn 1 during the opening laps of races, prompting criticism from Fernando Alonso. Lawson expressed the need for F1 to address this issue and advocated for the reintroduction of grass or gravel traps to deter drivers from cutting corners. He emphasized the importance of tracks with consequences for going off track in preventing such incidents. Lawson’s stance reflects a desire for stricter enforcement of track limits to promote fair and competitive racing.
