Fresh “data” question after “knee-jerk” Red Bull Liam Lawson call
Red Bull warned thaꦇt 'conveyor belt' of driver talent has slowed

Red Bull’s analysis of their own data has been questioned after their decision to ditch 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Liam Lawson.
Lawson became the latest driver to be brutally removed from the Red Bull by the 🃏tea♑m, losing his seat after just two races.
He will be replaced by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda from ⭕next weekend’s F1 Japanese Grand Pri🅺x, and will be sent back to Racing Bulls where he was only recently promoted from.
Sky F1 commentator David Croft asked: “What I’d love to know is: how they made the decision about 🔯Liam Lawson i🎶n the first place?
“They had all the data from꧋ RB, their sisᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚter team. They can compare Verstappen to Lawson, Tsunoda to Perez.
“They have got all the data they need, but they seem to keep making the wrongꦦ decision.
“What data did t🐬hey use? Why now, after two raceওs, are they discarding that data? And bringing in Tsunoda who they didn’t think worthy, and haven’t thought was worthy for some time?”
Red Bull 'conveyor belt' of drivers is slowing
Lawson was given the nod to step up and become 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen✱’s teammate at the end of 2024, ending a long spell where Sergio Perez was under pres🥃sure.
Perez’s inability to score points was part of the reason that Red Bull conceded the constructors’ cham𒅌pionship to McLarenඣ, so he lost his seat and was replaced by Lawson.
Tsunoda was overlooked i💜n f🃏avour of then-teammate Lawson, who had only driven in 11 grands prix.
But after poor performances, part🍨icularly in qualifying, in Australia and China, Lawson has been added to a list which includes Pierre Gasly and Alex Albon of axed Red Bull drivers.
Crofty demanded: “Helmut Marko and Christian Horner need to sit out and say: ‘Where is our conveyor belt of talent? Who 💎is coming through? How do we make ꦬa long-term plan to stop making knee-jerk reactions that don’t do the team any good, or the drivers any good?’
“They had, at one time, the best driver development on the pla🍌net.
“Like Chelsea, they signed too many players. Their substitutes bench was creaking. “And they had to offload becaဣ🍨use they couldn’t find space for all of their drivers.
“Now, they probably haven’t got the conveyor belt of talent coming through, ready for a seat at the top teꦆam at this part▨icular time.
“It takes a bit of time if you’re not a Max Verstappen, a Kimi Antonell♛i, a Lewis Hamilton.🌃 You need time to ease yourself in.
“Fernando Alonso had it in his debut year with ꦉMinardi.”
