He will have an upgraded car but New Zealand driver Liam Lawson admits he can’t just expect a good result to land in his lap in Hungary this weekend.<\/p>\n
Last weekend’s 12th place finish in Belgium ended Lawson’s run of five points scoring races.<\/p>\n
His Racing Bull’s team-mate Arvid Lindblad was given the one available upgrade for the race at Spa and the Briton managed to finish ninth.<\/p>\n
However, in the existing set-up Lawson struggled for speed at times and did well to hang onto his final placing.<\/p>\n
The 24 year old will get the same chassis upgrade this week but isn’t relying on it to score points.<\/p>\n
“It’s obviously good to have the full package this weekend, but it doesn’t solve all the answers.” Lawson told media on the eve of the Hungary Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
“It definitely wasn’t the full gap that we were missing last week, so I can’t sit here and be like it’s just gonna be perfect now.<\/p>\n
“We’ve obviously looked over a lot of things and I’ll try and do a better job this weekend as well. Hopefully it’s strong enough.”<\/p>\n
Lawson sits tenth in the drivers’ standings with 39 points, just three points behind Pierre Gasly of Alpine.<\/p>\n
While his golden run did end at Spa, he remains confident of what they can do.<\/p>\n
“Obviously we’d love to turn that around and have another good weekend as we had leading up to Spa, I think the team’s in a great place.”<\/p>\n
Racing Bulls is now tied for fifth with Alpine in the constructors’ standings in the battle of the mid-field teams.<\/p>\n
