Liam Lawson is refusing to get carried away by his positive form in recent rounds as he acknowledged his fortunes can turn around quickly.<\/p>\n
Lawson has scored points at three of the last four grands prix, including a career-best sixth at the Austrian Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
His positive spell comes after a difficult opening phase to the season.<\/p>\n
The New Zealander commenced the year at Red Bull, but after two challenging opening rounds, he found himself demoted back to the sister Racing Bulls team.<\/p>\n
While Lawson has enjoyed an uptick in fortunes since returning to the Faenza-based squad, he acknowledged that things can rapidly go against him.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very easy to get ahead of yourself in the sport, and I think that we’ve had a really good couple of weekends and the speed has been very good,\u201d Lawson exclusively told RacingNews365.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut things change very, very quickly. So I think the approach for me stays the same as it has been for most of the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very, very close and competitive. For me, it’s just extracting everything out of me, but I feel comfortable in the car.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lawson has long been a member of the Red Bull family and carried its colours throughout his junior career en route to F1.<\/p>\n
Although the results at the senior team didn’t go his way, he had little trouble integrating himself into the squad when he stepped into the race seat at the start of the year.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing in this programme for five or six years now, even as a junior, I started driving the simulator when I was in F2,\u201d\u00a0he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI started to get introduced to the team, and then you do your first test days. I’d done a couple of TPCs with them over the years.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d spent a lot of time with both teams. There was a period where, as a reserve, I actually spent more time with Red Bull, and then I spent more time with VCARB when I started driving with them.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, I had spent plenty of time, especially with the engineering side of the team, for quite a few years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Detailing what he was able to learn during his two-round stint at Red Bull, Lawson admitted it was little beyond seeing how the team approached race weekends.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo I really learned quite a lot about the car and about the way the team was,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust working with the team and understanding their approach to race weekends, their approach to setting up the car and things like that, for sure, there are points that I take from that and there are points that I learn.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat would be the only sort of stuff that I would take from that time, because the rest, I didn’t spend much time there.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liam Lawson is refusing to get carried away by his positive form in recent rounds as he acknowledged…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":76984,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[441],"tags":[49,48,2476,578,2479,2477,2480,2478,930,576,577,932,1885,2475,582,82],"class_list":["post-76983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-formula-1","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-daniel-ricciardo","tag-f1","tag-f1-calendar","tag-f1-live","tag-f1-results","tag-f1-standings","tag-ferrari","tag-formula-1","tag-formula1","tag-lewis-hamilton","tag-max-verstappen","tag-motorsport","tag-racing","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76983"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76983\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76984"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
