F1: Liam Lawson is relegated and Yuki Tsunoda takes over from RBR


Liam Lawson is relegated to her former place in Racing Bulls and Yuki Tsunoda takes over from the Red Bull Racing.

The movement was already widely awaited and widely hypothesized by several vehicles. Now, in the third race of the year, we live a new beginning, with an exchange of pieces that, although predictable, arouse great curiosity in everything.




With this, Lawson returns to racing bulls to form a couple with Isack Hadjar. The New Zealand driver was previewed at Formula 1 in 2023, when he replaced Daniel Ricciardo after an accident suffered by the Australian. Lawson quickly attracted attention to the category, in particular by eliminating Max Verstappen in the Grand Prix Q2 of Singapore.

Interestingly, a new turnaround in his career has been held in Singapore. With Ricciardo away, Lawson had the opportunity to show his talent, while Red Bull evaluated his options for 2025 and beyond. The pilot took the opportunity well and consolidated in the team, opening the way for his promotion to Red Bull Racing, where he was announced to replace Sergio Perez for the next season.

But the fairy tale ended in the second race of the year. After performance below the expectations of Red Bull and its gym, unable to advance to the third quarter or the score, the decision was made immediately.

Yuki Tsunoda’s rise to the top of Motorsport was surprisingly fast. In just over three years, he left the Japanese F4 to secure a place in Formula 1 with Alphaatauri, now racing bulls. When he arrived in Europe in 2019, he did not know any of the circuits, but this did not prevent him from progressing quickly.

After a discreet start from F3, Tsunoda shone in his debut season in F2, winning three wins and ending the championship in third place. His speed and ability showed that he deserved a place on the Formula 1 grid.

Tsunoda established himself in the category and assumed the role of natural leader of racing bulls. And now, what seemed like a distant future has become reality. In the next race, which will be curiously at his home, he will take care of the long -awaited and coveted place at the Red Bull.
