A disappointed Liam Lawson after the qualifying round. The Red Bull driver admits to lacking confidence in the car, but acknowledges that this should not be an excuse.
Liam Lawson qualified last for the Grand Prix in China. In front of the F1 TV camera, the New Zealander visibly struggles. “It’s very tough, to be honest, but I have to learn to deal with this. I need to be in the top ten. I need time, but I’m not getting it,” Lawson fears. “When you’re driving a Formula 1 car, you need one hundred percent confidence. Not that I don’t have it, but I’m missing it a bit. I need to get a handle on this quickly, but this is not good enough,” he admits.
