Red Bull’s decision to demote 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Liam Lawson has divided opinion aꦛt the F1 Japanese Grand Prix.

After two poor showings in the Red Bull, Lawson was u🅠nceremoniously demoted for this 🎃weekend’s round at Suzuka.

He has been sent back to the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Racing Bulls s🎶ister team, with Yuki Tꦚsunoda swapped into the Red Bull alongside Max Verstappen.

Immediately, Lawson went fifth-fastest�🐷� in FP2 in Japan.

But his fello🅰w drivers have ✤had their say on his swift axing from the Red Bull.

Ollie Bearman ♎said: “It’s not🌸 easy for us. Especially after two races, it’s a quick decision. And not one which I agree with.

“It’⭕s nice for Liam to find his feet and go again, because I think he’s a great🦹 driver. Like the other rookies, he has a lot of pressure. To have a new beginning is nice.”

Kimi Antonelli: “It is really important to have an academy with the right support, like I get with Mercedes. Also with good people who support 😼you.”

Oscar Piastri said: “Two races is not long to figure th🥂ings out.

“I have raced against Liam in the junior categor𒊎ies. These two races weren’t representative of what he’s capable of.”

Red Bull axing Liam Lawson 'the right decision'

Jacques Villenueve said to Sky Sports: “Red Bull is a tough ꦗplace. They give a lot of drivers a chance, and not many teams do that.

“From a young age, they help them. But it’s a double🌟-edged sword.

“You get into the main team and you have to perform. If you don’t, y𝐆ou get chopped, and it happens quiꦇckly.”

Naomi Schiff added: “It looks like a harsh decision but truthfully it looks like the right deci👍sion.”

Ville🐻neuve continued: “It was the right decision because 💃he is performing better now.

“He is calmer. He was burned, crushed, and you cannot drive like this♑. You don’t get out of this hole, it just gets worse.

“Two races in a row he qualified last, in a Red Bull! You can’t do that. You go ღto bed and don’t sleep, he looks tired.

“It’s better than what happened to Albon, w🐭ho was sent home!”
