Liam Lawson consolidates his place this season, delivering consistent points for Racing Bulls within the Red Bull programme after a turbulent two-year spell.
He first stepped in at AlphaTauri in 2023, covering five races after Daniel Ricciardo fractured a finger during Dutch Grand Prix practice.
He returned in 2024 for the final six grands prix after Ricciardo’s dismissal. Promoted to Red Bull for 2025, he moved back to the sister team after two races.
Lawson’s 2025 Red Bull promotion lasts two races before a swift return to Racing Bulls.
Red Bull then confirmed his continued role at Racing Bulls late that year. Since, Lawson refines execution and becomes a dependable points source.
After 10 rounds, Lawson holds tenth in the drivers’ standings with 39 points. He scores in five consecutive events before a blank at Spa-Francorchamps.
Those returns form the core of Racing Bulls’ 61 points, underlining his status as the team’s primary contributor.
After 10 rounds, Lawson sits tenth with 39 points and leads Racing Bulls’ 61-point tally.
