Racing Bulls seat call on Lawson still unresolved

Autosport and Motorsport.com report Liam Lawson’s Racing Bulls future is still undecided, despite recent form that has strengthened his case.

Liam Lawson’s Racing Bulls future remains unresolved, according to reports from Autosport and Motorsport.com. Both outlets said his recent form has strengthened his position, but neither reported that a final decision has been made on the team’s 2027 line-up.

Motorsport.com also reported that Laurent Mekies said the decision on whether Lawson stays or Nikola Tsolov is promoted rests with Racing Bulls. Tsolov was named in that report as a possible option, so the situation remains one to watch rather than a settled move.

Lawson, born on 11 February 2002, has made 44 Formula 1 starts from 2023 to 2026 for three teams. He is ninth in the 2026 drivers’ championship on 89 points, which adds context as reports continue over his place in the Racing Bulls plans.
