Neither seat at Racing Bulls has been filled for next year – but should Liam Lawson be retained, might he have a surprise team-mate by his side?
The Red Bull sister team, Racing Bulls, has been advised to consider F2 championship leader Leonardo Fornaroli as a potential driver for one of its seats next year. Other drivers such as Liam Lawson, Isack Hadjar, and Yuki Tsunoda are also in the running for the seats, with Red Bull junior Arvid Lindblad being considered as well. However, Fornaroli, who has shown consistency in his debut F2 season and is not currently affiliated with an F1 team, could be a strong choice for Racing Bulls. Racing driver Jamie Chadwick has suggested that Fornaroli could be a better fit for the team than Lindblad, urging the team to explore options outside their system. Chadwick is confident that Lawson will remain in F1 next year, even if he is not able to return to the Red Bull sister team. Other drivers who have gone through the Red Bull system, such as Alex Albon and Pierre Gasly, have found success in securing long-term contracts in F1.
