    Liam Lawson's Formula One team Red Bull Racing have put in the hard yards in the garage and have got his car ready for this evening's qualifying session at the Australian Grand Prix

    Liam Lawson's Formula One team Red Bull Racing have put in the hard yards in the garage and have got his car ready for this evening's qualifying session at the Australian Grand Prix


    The Kiwi driver completed just two laps of the third and final practice session at Melbourne's Albert Park, before retiring with a power unit issue.

    However, Red Bull confirmed to the New Zealand Herald that the issue was fixable, and Lawson has taken to the grid and will be able to qualify.

    The session's just getting under way.
