How Lawson helped Lindblad by sacrificing his Q3 run

During qualifying for the United States Grand Prix, Racing Bulls driver Liam Lawson did not set a time in Q3. The team made this strategic decision to help his team mate, Arvid Lindblad, who had a five-place grid penalty. Lindblad finished qualifying ahead of Lawson, and because both drivers were positioned at the back of the top ten, the team chose to sacrifice Lawson's session to secure a better starting position for Lindblad.
