    Former Red Bull driver David Coulthard feels opportunity knocks for Liam Lawson during the looming new Formula One season

    Former Red Bull driver David Coulthard feels opportunity knocks for Liam Lawson during the looming new Formula One season


    After a demoralising demotion from the top Red Bull team early in 2025 - the Kiwi driver produced a solid campaign to earn retention with junior outfit Racing Bulls for this year.

    But Coulthard says if Lawson shines in 2026, he could get his spot back in the number one squad - or get noticed elsewhere.



    18-year-old Arvid Lindblad joins Lawson at Racing Bulls this year.
