Former F1 stra🥃tegist Bernie Collins has questioned why Red Bull didn’t give Liam La✅wson an extensive testing programme ahead of his debut with the team.

Lawson has struggled♏ in his first two races for Red Bull, failing to score a point.

His poor form has led to intense speculation about his future, with Yuki Tsunoda potentially taking his drive for the Japanese Grand Prix o♋nwards.

However, Lawson could be out of F1 entirely.

A report by has suggested that Red Bull are eyeing168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Franco Colapinto as Tsunoda’s replacement at Racing Bulls, possibly le🅰aving Lawson without a drive for the remainder of 2025.

Collins, who was part o🎃f Sky Sports F1’s team for the Chinese Grand Prix weekend, criticised Red Bull for not giving Lawson more testing time.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Andrea Kimi Antonelli got approximately 9,000 kilometres of running on old Mercedes cars ahead of his ♌F1 debut at the Austral🎃ian Grand Prix.

Collins feels༒ that Red Bull should have done the same with Lawson.

“We’ve spoken about how the Red Bull is a very tricky car to drive. It’s not the same as a Racing Bulls. What I’d love to know is why did Red Bull not do a similar proꦜgramme to Mercedes wiꦏth Liam Lawson,” Collins said.

“Why was he not doing a similar amount of test days in a four-year-old Red Bull, it’s going to have t🎉he same characteristics𒁃, there is no cost cap limit in that.

“He could’ve stepped into that car in a much stronger position if he did that𝕴.”

It’s been a torrid two races for Law🌠son as a Red Bull driver.

In Australia, Lawson lacked pace all weekend and was eliminated in Q1𒈔.

In tricky conditions, Lawson was one of the drivers to crash out of the race, bringing an end to a disappointing season-ope🧸ne♉r.

Things didn’t improve in China, with Lawson qualifying 20th for the sprint☂ race.

While he made some progress in the race, it was a clumsy recovery to 14th in theꦆ final order.

Lawson qualified last agai🐬n in qualif🌸ying for the grand prix.

His final result of 12th in the race was only due to th🥀e two Ferraris and Pierre Gasly being disqualified.
