Liam Lawson is planned to stay at Racing Bulls in 2026.
Red Bull management plans to extend Liam Lawson's contract for the next season, during which he will compete for Racing Bulls. This is reported by the New Zealand newspaper Herald, citing information from the driver's circle.
The article states that Lawson, thanks to his experience and good knowledge of the team, is perfectly suited to lead the Faenza crew during a season of major regulation changes. However, the question remains open regarding Lawson's teammate in 2026.
It is expected that the Red Bull leadership's decision will depend on Yuki Tsunoda's results. If the Japanese driver does not show sufficient progress in the remaining races of the season, it is highly likely that he will be replaced by Iza Hojjar in 2026. In that case, the vacant position at Racing Bulls will go to Arvid Lindblad, who is highly praised by Helmut Marko.
