Johnny Herbert has suggested Red Bull have made the wrong choice to keep Daniel Ricciardo in the AlphaTauri car and not promote Liam Lawson.
The Kiwi has been filling in Australasian compatriot after Ricciardo broke his hand during free practice in Zandvoort and so far, Lawson has proved more than up to the task.
Herbert, a man who raced 160 times over an 11-year career, believes Red Bull made the wrong choice and should have gone with the “future” in Lawson. “I understand that Daniel didn’t get a proper go at it before breaking his [hand] at Zandvoort, but in the time he had on his return there was no ‘wow factor.’“I think it should have been a Lawson/Tsunoda line-up at AlphaTauri next year. After all, it’s a junior team that exists to [nurture] young talent.”F1 2024 driver line-up: Who is confirmed for next season’s grid?
