  • Liam Lawson: ready to go at Red Bull

    Liam Lawson: ready to go at Red Bull
    Mar 12 2025
    With 11 Grands Prix under his belt, Liam Lawson is technically no longer a rookie – but he is about to embark on his first full Formula 1 season in 2025 and race at many tracks he’s never driven before.
    So how does the New Zealander feel about this next step with Red Bull Racing? Speaking to Tom Clarkson at the team’s UK headquarters in Milton Keynes, Liam answers all the big questions ahead of a potentially career-defining year.
    What did Liam do to persuade Team Principal Christian Horner and Red Bull Motorsport Advisor Helmut Marko that he was the right man to replace Sergio Perez? How is he approaching the challenge of having four-time World Champion Max Verstappen as his new teammate? And, with five other drivers kickstarting their F1 careers this season, why does he think more teams are choosing youth over experience?

So good

I really enjoyed hearing from Paul Stoddart. His perspectives on drivers like Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso were vivid and reaffirmed what I've heard about their characters in positive (and in Schumi's case unexpected) ways. It's also refreshing to hear such a positive impression of Red Bull in an age where they've been branded Public Enemy Number One by so many. A great listen.

Podcasting magic.

Absolutely brilliant. F1 podcasting at it's best. As a life-long F1 fan, being born in 1991, hearing all these podcast episodes has opened up a world of memories that I felt that I had forgotten. From old drivers to current, old team principles to current and even race engineers to engine designers and aerodynamisists.

Keep at it Tom and F1, I will always be listening as long as it may continue. Thank you.
