Racing Bulls<\/a> team principal Alan Permane suggested that its F1 2027 driver line-up will be deciding in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The Faenza squad has three solid options: Liam Lawson, Arvid Lindblad and Nikola Tsolov. One will miss out on an F1 2027 grid slot. Permane noted that his team is \u201cin a slightly unique situation\u201d as the Red Bull junior F1 team when it comes to driver decisions, as it also must cast an eye to developing talent for the company\u2019s Formula 1 future.<\/p>\n

Liam Lawson to learn F1 2027 fate \u2018in coming weeks\u2019<\/p>\n

Much of next season\u2019s grid has fallen into place. However, there remains a major decision to be made over at Racing Bulls.<\/p>\n

Lawson<\/a> and F1 2026 rookie Lindblad are proving an impressive partnership. The team sits P5 in the Constructors\u2019 standings, at the head of the midfield.<\/p>\n

But, the next Red Bull rising star is knocking on the door. Tsolov has won six races in his rookie Formula 2 season so far, as part of his title challenge.<\/p>\n

At the Singapore Grand Prix, Racing Bulls team boss Permane was asked when we can expect news on its F1 2027 driver decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be in the coming weeks, let\u2019s say,\u201d he confirmed. \u201cWe\u2019re not in a rush.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think everyone knows we\u2019ve got two fantastic drivers. We\u2019ve got a fantastic driver in F2 at the moment, and they\u2019re all there and ready to go.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut three doesn\u2019t fit into two, of course, and we\u2019re just going to take a little bit more time and make sure we get the the right pairing for next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Racing Bulls carries the brief of developing talent for a future promotion to the senior Red Bull team.<\/p>\n

While Lawson has already experienced Red Bull promotion and demotion, he demonstrated his continued value to the programme with an impressive return to Red Bull Racing, standing in for the injured Isack Hadjar earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The New Zealander secured P7 at the final Dutch Grand Prix and P6 in Madrid, either side of a Monza race complicated by a grid penalty and car damage.<\/p>\n

Permane was quizzed on the key criteria Racing Bulls is looking for with its F1 2027 pairing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s many, many, many things,\u201d he said. \u201cI guess top of the list is speed and pace and all that goes with that.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut there\u2019s lots, of course, in the background, because we\u2019re in a slightly unique situation. I guess we want to bring on young drivers. We want to bring on young talent, and of course we have one eye on on them progressing in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo it\u2019s not just about the here and now; it\u2019s also about what they can do in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
