Liam Lawson enjoyed the Young Driver Test he got to take on behalf of Red Bull Racing. He was not driving the RB18 for the first time, but is grateful for the opportunity and realises how important the day was for the team.
"Days like today are very important," Lawson said in a Red Bull Racing press release. "F1 testing is very limited, so track time is extremely valuable and I'm grateful that I got to drive the and to help the Team with development for next year."

For himself, however, the Red Bull junior also felt the testing time was important. "It’s so different to anything else we drive. Obviously, you go from junior categories to prepare for it, but honestly, nothing can," Lawson admitted.
"Today the sessions went really well. After a full day, I definitely feel more comfortable in the car and hopefully I’ll get more opportunities like this in the future," concludes the New Zealander, who finished third in the Formula 2 championship this year.
