    Despite what is written in the media, the teams have the telemetry, and know who is getting the best out of their cars. So if he is good enough, regardless of results, they know

      Good sprint qualifying for Lawson. He finished 10th.. he was 9th but had a time deleted

      Perez 16th & Tsunoda 17th

        An absolute mare of a start saw Lawson drop from 10 to 17. Saving grace: Perez finished dead last in 20th.

          Lawson not great. But Perez managed to get himself eliminated while in 5th.

            RB race pace was slow all weekend. Tsunoda 13th, Lawson 14th (15 cars finished). The sprint was Lawson 16th, Tsunoda 17th. Not much either can do when the pace wasn’t there

                      Max calling the stewards idiots for penalising him for doing his usual corner using the other car as a buffer and fuck the other driver's race.

                            Lawson has done an ok job. Not bad, but not clearly superior to Tsunoda.

                            I think he needs a full season in RB to show his stuff properly. He doesn’t look like Red Bull quality. Yet.

                            Rumour mill of Bottas to Red Bull has quieted down, I thought that made a lot of sense. So who knows, fingers crossed for him.

                                Yeah that’s where it is now. A few weeks ago there was talk.

                                Be nice if he can stay in f1. Good driver to watch.

                                  I missed when he was actually good and the only time I notice him now is generally when he's being passed easily.

                                    Gasny has been in great form but he’s ex red bull. Sainz would have been another choice. Hope Lawson gets it then we see what he can do in a proper car.

                                      Eighth place not having pitted. He was heading for 10 to 14 but had to pit again to bolt tire properly.

                                          It would be tough. Perez never seemed to come to grips with the car, it seems odd that they don't develop a more neutral car as a base. But opportunities like that don't come around very often. He'll grab it with both hands if offered
