Horner denies Red Bull have given Lawson F1 2025 seat guarantee

Despite impressing as a stand-in for the injured 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo over the past three races, Lawson has not been rewarded with a full-time seat for 2024, with AlphaTauri retaining Ricciardo alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Yuki Tsunoda

I🅷nstead, Lawson is expected to spe⛄nd a year on the sidelines as Red Bull’s reserve driver. 

There had been reports that Red Bull had promised the 21-year-old New Zealander a seat at either the senior team, or sister o🌌utfit AlphaTauri, for 2025, but that has been rejected by Horner. 

"There is no g𒐪uarantees of anything in life,” the Red Bull team principal told Sky Sports Nꦑews. “He’s done a great job; he's really impressed us.

"He's done exactly what we could have asked for in terms of grabbing the opportunity in Daniel's absence to really show his capability.💖 That's turned some heads and it's done him a lot of good.

"We'll keep developing him when he goe⛎s back into that test and reserve role and he'll be a candidate certainly for 2025.”

Lawson looks set to continue deputising for Ricciardo at🐽 next weekend’s Qatar Grand ﷽Prix.

Providing an update on Ricciardo’s recovery from the broken hand he sustained at Zandvoort, Horner admitted it is 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:“less likely than likely” that the🍨 Australian 𒅌would return to action in Qatar. 

"His recuperation is going well but he's fixed in the seat for next year, does 🌸he need to rush a hasty return for Qatar where maybe another couple of weeks for Austin, which is a hell of a bumpy circuit anyway, it might be better to use that time in ♍preparation for Austin,” Horner added. 

"I know he's got his sights fixed on Qatar,▨ he'll drive the simulator next week and then we'll make some decisions based on that."
