Photo: ReutersThe Racing Bulls boss has some encouraging words for New Zealand driver Liam Lawson. Lawson is on a break after completing his first full season in Formula 1 which presented him with many challenges. Lawson was demoted from Red Bull to junior team Racing Bulls after just two rounds of the 2025 championship. His team-mate Isack Hadjar has been promoted to Red Bull for 2026, while Arvid Lindblad will join him at Racing Bulls. Lawson now has another year to prove himself and Racing Bulls Team Principal Alan Permane is encouraged.
