Oracle Red Bull Racing Driver: Red Bull have announced Liam Lawson as Sergio Perez's replacement to race alongside four-time world champion Max Verstappen in the 2025 Formula 1 season.

New Zealand native Lawson joined the Red Bull Junior Programme in 2019 and after multiple junior formula successes made his Formula One debut with Scuderia AlphaTauri at the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix, in place of the injured Daniel Ricciardo. He scored his first championship points in just his second outing at the Singapore GP and completed five races in all for the team. After taking up his Reserve Driver role with both teams at the start of 2024, Lawson returned to Grand Prix racing with Racing Bulls with a points-scoring finish at this year’s United States Grand Prix.

Now, after completing the season with RB, the 22-year-old takes the next step in his career with a seat at Red Bull.
