F1, Liam Lawson just can’t accept it
The merciless comparison with Alonso and Stroll
There are many rookies who will be at the starting tapes of the new F1 season. Among them is Lawson, who has "blown" Parez’s place and will be a teammate with four-time World Champion Verstappen. The New Zealander, despite being only 22 years old, has clear ideas, particularly about Drugovich, another rising star in the paddock.
"È crazy that he is out. If there'è anyone who deserves a spot right now, it's; Drugovich. He definitely deserves a place", Lawson’s clear words reported by Marca. As of today, the Brazilian works for Aston Martin. He has taken part in a few practice sessions but has never raced an F1 GP.
"È was faster than Lance Stroll in FP1 of last year’s Abu Dhabi GP and finished the session in third position. And in 2024 è he was also faster than Fernando Alonso in practice", Lawson himself pointed out, as if to certify how Drugovich is already faster than the "starters" at Aston Martin.
As is well known, there is bad blood between Alonso and Lawson, who have already caught each other on more than one occasion. Surely the New Zealander’s statements will not have pleased the Spaniard. Appointment on the track for a new face-to-face.
