Lawson on Red Bull's woes: 'Expected, but not this much'
Liam Lawson has confirmed Red Bull's woes following the two practice sessions in Melbourne ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, in which neither he nor teammate Max Verstappen managed to make a good impression.
Red Bull too slow in Australia
"I'm comfortable but just too slow. We have a lot of work to do overnight. Day One on a new track we expected to have some work to do but probably not this much. We will work on it overnight and try to improve tomorrow."
It was clear that Red Bull Racing were not comfortable in Australia. As the rest of the world Lawson is also at a lost as to why that is. "Not really. I think if we knew that we’d know how to fix it as well. In general just grip, when we need to use it on that short run, but then in general our long-run pace was slow as well. We’ll obviously work on it," the New Zealander concluded.
