Liam Lawson expresses major Red Bull regret after F1 axe

Liam Lawson has expressed his regret at not being able to trial improvements he was making to his Red Bull before his demotion.  Lawson was dropped by Red Bull after just two races with the senior team after disappointing performances in Australia and China, although he did set the second fastest race lap in the chaotic and tricky Melbourne opener.  The New Zealander was demoted back to Racing Bulls, with then boss Christian Horner conceding it was a mistake to promote Lawson so soon to replace Sergio Perez after just 13 races, and having never started an F1 season.  Reflecting on his experience, Lawson feels steps being made never had the opportunity to be implemented which could have saved his seat. "I didn't have anywhere near enough time on two tracks that I had never been to to really understand [the car]," Lawson told media, including RacingNews365.  "I didn't have enough feel for the car to be able to comment on what its speed is like or things like that. "We were working on things to improve it and make it better for me, and I never got the chance to use it, so all I can comment on is the Racing Bulls car because that's what I've spent most of my time driving.  "We're always learning and developing and trying things, and everybody has developed their cars, so we are not finding three-tenths of lap-time in an upgrade. "We're finding half-a-tenth, so it is small margins, and it is the first full season [I've had], so there are things along the way that I am learning."
