In a shocking turn of events in the world of Formula 1, Red Bull’s rising star Liam Lawson is facing the possibility of yet another demotion within the team. After being replaced by Yuki Tsunoda in just the second race of the 2025 season, Lawson has been struggling to make an impact, failing to score a single point while his rookie teammate Isack Hadjar has already collected five points. The pressure is mounting on Lawson as former F1 race winner Juan Pablo Montoya hints at the team considering bringing in 17-year-old prodigy Arvid Lindblad to replace him.
Montoya expressed his concerns, stating, “If Liam doesn’t improve quickly, I wouldn’t be surprised if they bring in Arvid Lindblad at some point.” The speculation surrounding Lawson’s future at Red Bull has intensified as Lindblad, a product of Red Bull’s successful driver development program, has been making waves in the F2 series with his impressive performances, including his first win.
At 23 years old, Lawson is no stranger to being a highly touted prospect within Red Bull’s ranks, but with his current struggles, he must find a way to bounce back and deliver results if he hopes to secure a permanent spot in F1. The pressure is on for Lawson to revitalize his form and help elevate the Racing Bulls team in the constructors’ championship standings.
Amidst all the drama surrounding Lawson’s potential demotion, the F1 world eagerly awaits to see how this situation unfolds and whether Red Bull will indeed make a bold move by introducing the talented young driver Lindblad into the mix. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
