Lawson to Replace Hadjar at Red Bull for Dutch GP
Red Bull has not made a final decision, and Lawson could return after Hadjar was ruled out with a wrist injury, reports said.
- Isack Hadjar has reportedly been ruled out of this weekend's Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort due to a wrist injury, opening the door for Liam Lawson to make a surprise return to Red Bull Racing.
- Hadjar reportedly sustained the injury during a gym session over the summer break. Ironically, Lawson made his Formula 1 debut at Zandvoort in 2023 as a last-minute substitute after Daniel Ricciardo suffered a wrist injury.
- Lawson currently sits ninth in the drivers' championship with 43 points, and he and teammate Arvid Lindblad have led Racing Bulls to fifth in the constructors' championship, representing the team's best finish in history.
- While Red Bull has not finalized the decision, missing this weekend would allow Hadjar two weeks to recover before the Italian Grand Prix at Monza on 6 September. If confirmed, Lawson would partner with Max Verstappen.
- Lawson's place on the 2027 grid remains uncertain despite his recent success. Reports previously linked him to losing his seat to Bulgarian teenager Nikola Tsolov, though Racing Bulls robustly denied these claims.
