Liam Lawson to face grid penalty at Italian Grand Prix

Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix Liam Lawson Red Bull Racing grid penalty

Liam Lawson will face a grid penalty for the Italian Grand Prix at Monza after Red Bull Racing opted to introduce new power unit components. The decision involves using parts from the allocation belonging to Isack Hadjar, who is currently sidelined with a wrist injury.

Lawson, filling in for Hadjar, expressed that the penalty was planned before the weekend, allowing the team to focus on race preparation and long-run simulations. Despite the penalty, Lawson aimed to reach Q3 during qualifying to potentially provide a slipstream for Max Verstappen, a tactic often used at Monza to gain time on straights.

During qualifying, Lawson was eliminated in Q2 after being blocked by Oscar Piastri on his final attempt. While the traffic hindered his ability to advance, the penalty meant he would have started from the back of the grid regardless of his qualifying position.
