Liam Lawson will kick off his second full season in F1 this weekend at the Australian Grand Prix.
Liam Lawson aims to start his second F1 season strong and seeks support from Australian fans, considering the Melbourne event as a kind of home race due to representing New Zealand. After a mixed first full season last year, where he was demoted to Racing Bulls from the Red Bull squad, the 24-year-old values the importance of the short winter break for recharging. He expressed excitement for Round 1 in Melbourne, emphasizing the time spent at home in New Zealand to prepare physically for the demanding 2026 season. Despite uncertainties from fresh technical regulations, Lawson is eager to adapt throughout the year and is looking forward to racing in Australia as a familiar territory where he can meet local fans and experience the special atmosphere.
