Liam Lawson’s future at Red Bull is under serious threat as Christian Horner and Helmut Marko engage in a power struggle that could determine the fate of the team's next big driver. Despite Lawson proving his worth with solid performances, Horner appears to be shifting focus to other Red Bull junior talents like Arvid Lindblad, Franco Colapinto, and Oliver Bearman. With Daniel Ricciardo’s departure potentially opening a door for Lawson, the competition from Red Bull’s deep pool of junior drivers is fierce, leaving fans wondering if Lawson will get his big break or be left behind.
In this video, we discuss the growing uncertainty around Liam Lawson's future, Christian Horner’s recent comments, and what Red Bull’s strategy might mean for the young driver’s career. With 15 junior drivers vying for a spot, the pressure is on Lawson to perform at his best if he wants to avoid being overshadowed by rising stars. Could Red Bull’s future lineup already be decided, or is there still hope for Lawson? Watch to find out the latest on this intense F1 power battle!

195. Lando Norris Let His Guard Down Before F1’s Final Showdown
23:02||Season 3, Ep. 195The intense FIA press conference before Abu Dhabi gave us a lot to work with.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsPutting Max Verstappen, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri was going to be interesting; and the world was not disappointed. Norris let his guard down with honest answers whilst Piastri and Verstappen were a lot more closed off. Was this a ploy by Lando to show his hand and clear the air or was this useful intel for his main rivals going into the 2025 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The first end round finale we've had since 2021.

194. Toyota OFFICIALLY Returns To Formula One
24:37||Season 3, Ep. 194In a shock move, Toyota's name shall grace an F1 team for the first since 2009.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsYes, it's not a full-on works team, but Toyota Gazoo Racing has stepped up its collaboration with Haas to transform Gene's team into TGR Haas F1 Team for the 2026 Formula One season. This is more than a simple increase in Toyota stickers on the car; but the pinnacle of what's been going on for the last 12 months or so. The realisation of a proper driver program in the junior formulae AND the success of Haas having a proper test team in Japan with access to Fuji Speedway AND finally having its own simulator, not having to borrow stuff from Ferrari so much anymore.But the question is, when will Haas remove the prancing horse from its equation? Does it need to? Can it manage two titans of motorsport in the same room?Toyota OFFICIALLY Returns To Formula Onehttps://youtu.be/OJN__Q0sRjM#f1 #toyotagazooracing #formula1 #formulaone #toyotaf1 #toyota #haas #haasf1team #scuderiaferrari #ferrarif1 #ferrari #f12026 #f1news #f1latest #f1drama #f1updates #f1teams #f1team #f1drivers #hitechtgr #tgrhaas Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

193. Yuki Tsunoda OUT, Isack Hadjar IN
24:21||Season 3, Ep. 193It's over. Yuki Tsunoda is out of Red Bull Racing...at least their main lineup.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn a surprise move, Yuki Tsunoda is NOT out of a job in F1, but has been moved off into a third driver, testing sort of a role. Part of the RB family, but not a main man. Meanwhile, the expected lineup of Isack Hadjar moving up to join Max Verstappen and Arvid Lindblad stepping into Racing Bulls played out as expected. As for Liam Lawson? He survives to race another season of Formula 1...but is this with the aim to LEAVE Red Bull in due course?

We're going to Abu Dhabi.Climb the ladder with me over on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsWhat should've been a steady securing of his first world title, Lando Norris now finds himself HAVING to secure a top 3 finish next time out after the Qatar GP threw himself and Oscar Piastri a curveball...by their own team. For a second time in as many races. As that happened, Max Verstappen led seventeen drivers to an early stop behind the Safety Car with the title very much on the line.Meanwhile, Carlos Sainz secured fifth the best of the rest accolade for Williams as Isack Hadjar spectacularly crashed out of the points and Oliver Bearman just crashed out.Who else won, lost or were just plain meh at the Qatar Grand Prix?#f1 #qatargp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #qatargrandprix #maxverstappen #carlossainz #f1predictions #predictions #redbullracing #mclaren #mclarendsq #redbull #f12025 #formula12025 #oscarpiastri #verstappen #landonorris #mclaren #f1teams #f1drama The 2025 F1 Qatar Grand Prix WINNERS & LOSERShttps://youtu.be/KWrf1k8XSe0🐦 https://twitter.com/LawVSX🕚 https://tiktok.com/@lawvsf1🧵 https://threads.net/@lawvsx#f1 #qatargp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #qatargrandprix #f1predictions #predictions #maxverstappen #redbullracing #mclaren #landonorris #redbull #f12024 #formula12024 #verstappen #norris #sergioperez #perez #zhou #f1drama #fia
190. McLaren’s FIA Plea An Insult To Senna's Legacy
22:35||Season 3, Ep. 190McLaren are chasing the FIA to relax rules regarding technical breaches...that is sad.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsWhilst team principal Andrea Stella discussed that no team orders would be in place for the rest of the F1 season, including Qatar, a quiet technical answer was given in the wake of the team's disqualification in Las Vegas for that grand prix. The McLaren team boss claimed to be in dicussion with the FIA, the sport's governing body, to perhaps relax sanctions regarding breaking of rules related to technical faults...instead of being a simple good or no good situation.Quite frankly, this is a very controversial subject and one entrenched in the legacy of Ayrton Senna and his passing in 1994.

189. Adrian Newey Takes TOTAL CONTROL of Aston Martin
21:52||Season 3, Ep. 189Adrian Newey assumes EVEN MORE control of Aston Martin, now as their team principal. WHAT?!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn a surprise twist of fate, Aston Martin have announced that they've hired from within. That the legendary F1 designer has taken up the role of leading the team trackside as well as designing their future cars. What does this mean for the team amidst their fourth change of team boss in four years? Putting Alpine to shame right there! Will Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll seek to gain from this change or will this add more pressure with outsiders wanting in? Elite drivers like Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc may be looking closely...and as for Christian Horner. Is there room for him as CEO perhaps?#f1 #astonmartin #lancestroll #adriannewey #astonmartinf1 #fernandoalonso #f1news #f12026 #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #f1teams #f1drivers #alonso Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Adrian Newey Takes TOTAL CONTROL of Aston Martinhttps://youtu.be/KHb6VKwqm78Can't watch the ladder?

188. Oscar Piastri's Got Everyone Guessing Again
25:10||Season 3, Ep. 188Everyone's talking about Max and Lando...but what about Oscar Piastri?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsNobody is quite certain what exactly McLaren's Australian driver will do in the midst of pressure from both Norris and Verstappen...so I asked YOU to discuss it with me! With 6,000 votes cast, it's clear. YOU WANT CHAOS! However, I don't think it's as simple as that. Today I wish to discuss four possible scenarios which Piastri could deploy at a track which he historically has vibed with. The Qatar GP at Lusail is, thankfully, one he is good at...after weeks of tracks that he is not so good at.#f1 #oscarpiastri #formula1 #formulaone #landonorris #maxverstappen #f12025 #f1teams #f1drivers #piastri #papayarules #mclarenf1team #redbullracing #verstappen #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f125 #f1drama Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Nobody Knows What Oscar Piastri Will Do Nexthttps://youtu.be/G030piD2HZUCan't watch the ladder?

Lando should be nervous.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsWe knew the Qatar GP was gonna be something to keep an eye on, what with tyres expected to struggle and Pirelli mandating a 25 lap limit for them...but thanks to the McLaren double disqualification, Max Verstappen is closer than he has been since the start of the season to Lando Norris and is equal to Oscar Piastri. How will they stack up within the top 3?In other news, Aston Martin's connections to Christian Horner mount up what with reports regarding a change of team principal soon as well as, shocker, Yuki Tsunoda GETTING AN APOLOGY FROM HELMUT MARKO.
