The Sao Paulo Grand Prix was only Liam Lawson’s third race this season and was the second stage in which he managed to earn points. According to the Visa RB rider, the result could have been better than 9th place, but the lack of experience had an impact.
Liam Lawson: “The conditions at the Sao Paulo circuit were definitely very difficult, and when we made the decision to pit, that was my decision too, which was probably due to a lack of experience.
I thought I was going to have an accident. I think many of us were afraid of this because the track was very wet. That pit stop set us back, but it’s still nice that we were able to earn points in the end.
When we talk about the upcoming race in Las Vegas, we prepared for it, as usual, on the simulator, but last year I was able to drive a few laps around this track in a Ford Mustang, and that’s all I really experienced. with the railway.
The factor that will likely have the biggest impact this weekend is the cold temperatures. It is very cold here and I am sure there are very serious challenges ahead, but I am already looking forward to the race in Las Vegas, and in general it is very interesting here.
Last year our team had big problems at this track, but since then we have been able to change a lot and let’s hope that we understand much better how to work the car here. We are quite optimistic. Visa RB is in a tight battle for sixth place in the Constructors’ Championship and our aim this weekend is to score points with both cars.”
When Liam was asked if he knew what awaited him in 2025, the New Zealand rider said: “Let’s just say I only know in which direction things could go, even though this season is not over yet and expectations are of course very high. high.
Although I have a rough idea of what prospects await me, I cannot confirm anything yet, and now the most important thing for me is to perform as well as I can this weekend and then start preparing for the next phase. I will have more accurate information after the end of the season.”
