Lawson boosted by ‘really cool’ run to P6 in Austria

Liam Lawson delivered his best Qualifying performance of the season at the Austrian Grand Prix, securing an impressive sixth-place grid slot for Racing Bulls. After a challenging start to the 2025 campaign and a demotion from the senior Red Bull team, Lawson has been diligently working to rebuild his confidence and form. This breakthrough performance at the Red Bull Ring, built on strong practice pace, marks a significant step forward. He expressed satisfaction with the hard work invested in the car and his own driving, noting that the speed had always been there but hadn't yet shown. Lawson is optimistic about adding to his season's sole points finish, despite the tricky tyre degradation conditions expected on race day.
