Williams’ James Vowles has spoken about the possibility of his team signing Liam Lawson, as AlphaTauri’s driver struggle continues.
Williams are understood to have evaluated Mick Schumacher already in their simulator, while Lawson is the latest candidate to replace Sargeant. Pressed on the matter, Williams’ team boss James Vowles said he’s waiting to see what Red Bull do in regards to their driver line-up before making any decisions.“Obviously, if we wind back a bit, Logan and him were teammates back in F2 and both finished nigh-on together in the F2 Championship.
With Lawson having been very impressive during his three Grand Prix weekends so far, Vowles said immediate performance is only one facet of what makes a driver strong. “What you’re looking for is the distinct improvement from the beginning of the season to where they are now or when they started racing to now.”Christian Horner: Liam Lawson ‘will be a Grand Prix driver’
“I think he’s done a tremendous job and certainly has put himself firmly on the radar and cemented the feeling that we had about him and he’s made a good start to this weekend. We’ll see how that continues.”
