Lawson and Lindblad retained at Racing Bulls for 2027

Racing Bulls has confirmed that its driver line-up will remain unchanged for 2027, with Liam Lawson continuing alongside Arvid Lindblad. The team had resisted promoting Formula 2 frontrunner Nikola Tsolov, ending speculation over Lawson's future.

Lawson said he was delighted to extend his stay with a team on course for its highest finish in the constructors' championship since entering Formula 1 in 2006. He said the team was still fighting for P5 in the standings. Lindblad, who graduated straight into Formula 1 after a single season in F2, said he was grateful for the support of the team and Red Bull and looked forward to building on his rookie season.

Team principal Alan Permane chose continuity over a late reshuffle. It is understood that Tsolov will be announced as the team's reserve in due course.
