Peter Bayer has explained how Liam Lawson was upon return to Racing Bulls after his difficult experience at Red Bull.
Racing Bulls CEO Peter Bayer denied claims of Liam Lawson returning to the team lacking confidence, admitting that the New Zealander was feeling “a bit sad and puzzled” after his stint at Red Bull.
