Lawson is really good. He's proven himself on the track.

Tbh he's been way more impressive than Riccardo. He's come out with 2 points already Vs Riccardo's 0 points.

If I were Alpha Tauri I'd make Lawson and Tsunoda the official drivers with Riccardo as backup.

I have to agree. His performances in both Zandvoort and Singapore have earned him a seat in my eyes.

IMO Ricciardo's future should be as a reserve/sim driver and marketing. He had a great run in RB and Renault, but his time has passed. And I have no doubt he'd make a great commentator or analyst for TV coverage.

Red Bull would be dumb to not bring Lawson back next year. Yuki and Ric have had their chance, time to cut one loose depending on how the rest of this year goes.

There’s absolutely 0 chance that Williams drop Sargeant. They’ve pretty much explicitly said that he was brought into F1 a year earlier than they planned and they’ll be giving him another one. After next year I could see them replacing him, but not after this one
