It is now clear that favorite Liam Lawson will be a teammate with Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen in Red Bull.

On Wednesday, the expected message came that Sergio Pérez will leave the stable, after an agreement where the Mexican had two years left on the contract.

New Zealander Lawson was given the green light after successfully replacing Daniel Ricciardo in Red Bull's sister team Visa Cash App Racing Bulls (VCARB) in several races both in 2023 and 2024.

This is what I've dreamed about my whole life, says Lawson about the new contract to F1's website.

This is something I've worked for since I was eight years old. It has been an incredible journey.
