Red Bull F1 driver 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Liam Lawson says his parentꦉs still don’t own a home after selling their house to help pay fo♎r his racing career.

Lawson is about to contest his first full season as an F1 driver alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen at Red Bull, having been promoted from sister team Racing Bulls after just 11 grands prix starts over a two-y🤪ear period.

The 22-year-old New Zealand’s road to F1 has been long and far from straightforward, requiring a big m💫ove from his native home to Europe in order to progress up the racing ladder.

Lawson’s first racing foray in Europe was in the G🌱erman F4 championship aged 16, but it required a huge sacrifice from his parents, who sold their house to they could better fund their son’s career.

“I think I complained to my dad for more than a year about my kart,” he told . “I’d tell him that the engine sucked, but he just secreꦚtly thought that I sucked.

“Eventually, he got sick of me whining and bought two good engin♋es, and we put them on for the first time at this big race. And when we went out, we qualified first.

“We started racing at the front all the time. That was the definitive moment, when ♉karting became serious. It was always seriꦗous to me. But for my dad, everything changed that one weekend.

“They still don’t own a house. Because of me.”

Lawson reveals Ricciardo advice 

Lawson was drafted in to replace veteran 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo at Red Bull’s sister team during the back-end🙈 of the 2024 season, marking his second stint with the Faenza squad.

The Kiwi’s performances at Racing Bulls would ultimately lead to him being promoted to the senior team, where he took the seat once held by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez.

Lawson has revealed the support he received from R🐓icciardo, despite the Australian being aware he was about to lose his F1 seat.

“I𓄧 actually spoke to Daniel a lot when it was happening,” he explain𒁏ed. “I will always have so much respect for him.

“Throughout the whole ordeal, from when the rumours started to when they were confirmed, he never said a ba🥃d word about or towards me.

“He never made it about me and him, because at the end of the day,♊ it wasn’t our decision. It꧅’s up to the team, and what they decide to do. He was so good to me, through all of it.

“Fast forward to December, when I got the Red Bull seat, and Daniel is still the only driver, past or present, to send me a message about it, congratulating me. 🎉It says a lot about him as a person.”
