Red Bull closing in on Liam Lawson swap with Yuki Tsunoda for Japanese GP
Luckless Lawson set for the drop and Tsunoda poised to finally get his
chance to shine in Red Bull's main team.

Yuki Tsunoda is in line for a call up to Red Bull’s F1 team for next
week’s Japanese Grand Prix - just as Motorsport exclusively reported
last Sunday.
 
Lawson has come under pressure after making a difficult start to the
season, crashing out of the Australian GP and was a lowly 15th place in
China. The New Zealander has struggled to adjust to the RB21, which has
prone to unpredictable handling and lacking in grip, which is not
inspiring confidence. His teammate, however, four-time world champion
Max Verstappen has fared better, but has still conceded he faces a
mammoth task in retaining the title this season driving the RB21.
 

This is what should have happened before the season started - thoroughly
bad decision-making by RB.
Whilst I can’t see Yuki doing any better with the RB21 than Perez did with
the RB20 I think this is actually very good news for Lawson. He now has a
golden opportunity to vindicate himself and could end up having a really
good season.
