Liam Lawson has been given the opportunity to compete for Red Bull Racing in the final six races of the Formula 1 season, potentially positioning him to replace Sergio Pérez alongside Max Verstappen for the upcoming season. Red Bull team principal Christian Horner explained that the decision to replace Daniel Ricciardo with Lawson at their sister team, AlphaTauri, was due to Ricciardo's inability to demonstrate sufficient form to warrant a return to the main team. This has opened the door for the young New Zealander to showcase his talent and make a case for a permanent seat at Red Bull. Horner emphasized that all drivers within the team are under pressure to perform, highlighting the competitive nature of the sport and the importance of delivering results.
