“Rent him out” Liam Lawson admission adds new complication to driver market

Helmut Marko’s claim that junior driver Lawson would be in one of their cars, seemingly referring to Red Bull or their sister team RB, caused a stir ahead of this weekend’s F1 Dutch Grand Prix.

But Horner has now insisted that Marko’s comment did not necessarily mean Lawson would be placed into one of the team’s cars.“I asked clearly. He said that will have a drive in Formula 1 next year.“Nothing is fixed. If we don’t take up the option on Liam, then he’s a free driver for 2025.“I checked with Helmut. He said ‘no I didn’t say which car, I said a drive…’”

This year the talented New Zealander is acting as Red Bull’s reserve and test driver but is a constant threat to those with race seats.
