Liam Lawson speaks out on Williams links after Red Bull snub
The Metro says Liam Lawson has ruled out racing for Williams next season after the young Formula One star was snubbed by Red Bull’s junior team AlphaTauri.
The Kiwi made his F1 debut at August’s Dutch Grand Prix, filling in for Daniel Ricciardo who broke his hand during practice.
He has continued to drive for AlphaTauri while the Aussie recovers, and despite his extremely limited experience has been very impressive, beating teammate Yuki Tsunoda in all four of his races and scoring his maiden points in Singapore.
The 21-year-old’s performances lead to speculation that AlphaTauri could sign him up full-time for the 2024 season, with one of Ricciardo and Tsunoda dropped, as Red Bull assess their options for the future.
