  • Liam Lawson has failed to advance past Q1 in three consecutive qualifying sessions and finished 15th in the Chinese Grand Prix after starting from the pitlane.
  • Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko has expressed dissatisfaction with Lawson's performance and hinted at the possibility of a driver swap from the Red Bull junior academy.
  • Yuki Tsunoda, currently driving for Racing Bulls, has publicly stated his readiness to replace Lawson, particularly with the Japanese Grand Prix approaching.
  • Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has emphasized supporting Lawson but acknowledged the team's need for both drivers to deliver results for the Constructors' Championship.
