He's the 22-year-old Kiwi who's been causing quite the stir since returning to Formula One in the latter part of this year. Liam Lawson is fighting for a permanent seat in next year's championship, and has been single-minded in his approach to making this happen. In his short time back in the top flight he has won points at two Grands Prix, developed an ongoing feud with a driver in the senior Red Bull team (including pulling the finger at him) and called the McLaren team's choice of national anthem “complete bull****.”
Now he sits down for an extended, revealing chat with Paddy to talk goals, heroes, being fast and driving a manual.
