    Formula One driver Liam Lawson is aware there's still plenty of work to do if his Racing Bulls team are to compete with their rivals in the middle of the pack


    The 23-year-old will start from 12th on the grid for tomorrow morning's Saudi Arabian Grand Prix - his best qualifying mark this season.

    Racing Bulls sit eighth in the constructor's championship - with seven points accumulated from four events.

    Lawson is content with his qualifying effort, but knows he needs to back it up on race day.



    Max Verstappen has taken pole position ahead of Oscar Piastri and George Russell.
