Over the break we have heard from Racing Bulls team boss Laurent Mekies, who was asked about his perspective on the switch, and in particular Liam Lawson returning to the squad this weekend.
“Liam is in a good place. I’m not going to tell you that he was happy about the news last week, because certainly it was difficult to digest,” the Frenchman said.
“But honestly, the next day he was with us in Faenza for the seat fit the day after, he was back in the sim. He knows he has an important role to play with us. He knows he has a point to prove out there. So, we are all very conscious that his talent is there and it’s about finding the right conditions to extract it back out of him.”
Welcome back for FP2
We’re back in the saddle for Friday’s second free practice session from Suzuka!
Will McLaren remain on top? Can Yuki Tsunoda continue his strong start alongside Max Verstappen at Red Bull? We’ll find out soon enough, with action getting underway at the top of the hour.
