Full 2025 Formula 1 grid as Lawson joins Red Bull

There’s just one seat remaining on the 2025 Formula 1 grid after Liam Lawson was confirmed as Sergio Perez’s replacement at Red Bull Racing.

Mexican Perez was sacked on Wednesday after a 2024 season where he consistently finished below par in comparison to his teammate Max Verstappen.

Lawson said: “To be announced as a Red Bull Racing driver is a lifelong dream for me, this is something I’ve wanted and worked towards since I was eight years old.

“It’s been an incredible journey so far. I am super excited to work alongside Max and learn from a world champion, I have no doubt I will learn from his expertise. I can’t wait to get going.”

The move is a blow to Yuki Tsunoda, who was fighting Lawson for the seat; he was in sensational form for RB in the 2024 Formula 1 season .
