Appreciate how honest he is in admitting that it's actually frustrating to watch 20 people living his dream while he's watching and waiting to get the chance to drive, he's concerned with Daniel's health condition yet he's excited about his debut. Love that.
Its rare when rookies usually refrain themselves from being themselves and saying something that may make them vulnerable,hats off to liam on him being so transparent in his self interest and acknowledging how big of a job he had to take on with next to none prep for the race.
Big fan already.
Liam comes across as extremely well spoken, intelligent and confident. Performed great in his debut, hope to see him as a permanent fixture on the grid soon.
Wish there was more of this sort of insight into this guarded world. I am very impressed with the way this young man carries himself and his intelligence. Sadly though, I'm not sure this is a good thing for him. He could set the world on fire here, Daniel heals up, and he's headed back to Japan. Is Red Bull going to let him go to another team? Unlikely...
He did a great job in Dutch GP. Imagine debuting in such a chaotic race, but still managing to bring the car to the chequered flag even close to the top 10, and make so little to zero mistakes. I'm looking forward to his race for the rest of the season. I'm also looking forward to his F1 career, maybe he can get a seat next year or another year. I'm rooting for you, Liam!
This is my favourite F1 driver interview in quite a long time for a few reasons. The questions, and interviewer, were fantastic and Liam's answers were so honest and without ego. You can tell this interview was thrown together at short notice with not a lot of time for the production team to set up a shot, but the simple two-cam one light set up with lots of super tight shots was extremely effective. It really brought the viewer closer to Liam's raw emotion, excitement and uncertainty. I really loved the bit where Liam talked about playing F1 2010 as a kid, and then when he first got in the cockpit in the garage it immediately took him back to this childhood memory. This is where you really come to understand that an F1 debut is the moment a person realises a life long dream. I've been watching F1 for about 30 years and one of the things I enjoy most is seeing new drivers get opportunities - and then take them. Boy, was Liam impressive on his first crack at a changeable Zandvoort. He was equally assured at Monza as well. As an Australian, I'm super pleased to see a Kiwi neighbour get a thoroughly deserved chance at F1. I wish him all the best in his remaining sessions and hope he can use this as a way to break into the field full time in the near future.
I’ve got faith in this young man. He got screwed out of the DTM title. He’s always top notch. Get in there Liam!
Fascinating! Lovely piece; very honest - not often I can lose myself for 12mins+... Great setting, atmosphere and questions - wonderful responses and insight from Liam... Well done everyone involved in producing this.
sad to see Daniel got sidelined, but quite excited for Liam to get his due.
Well yea ofc Daniel broke his hand
@@itzmespencerno way when did that happen?
Daniel gets RB seat and Liam Alpha Tauri and everyone’s happy
Been following Liam for a few years now, F2, DTM, Super Formula, last season the Rookie FP1’s he drove for both AT and RBR…. He truly is a FAST and confident driver. He deserves a full seat
Same except the super formula , he should be a DTM champion, fuck kvl!
He got robbed in broad daylight in the DTM, should've won the championship but the cross team manufacturers orders absolutely ruined the whole sport.
As a kiwi its bloudy brilliant to see liam finally making it been watching him for a few years now, here's hoping a full time drive so the whole country can get behind him.
I've been a Danny Ric fan since I started watching F1 in 2014, so I'm sad he is going to miss a few races... On the other hand, Liam Lawson seems to be very easy to root for. Glad he's getting a chance.
Love to see these new young drivers. They are smart and hungry.
Kia Kaha Kiwi - we are all behind you and trust you are IN a car in 2024, keep living and pursuing the dream.
vamoss liam! i see potential in this man. great job scoring points in singaporee!!
Good luck in Monza Liam,you are more than ready for F1
It’s great to see Liam do so well in Zanvoort- finishing 13th in his first race and ahead of Yuki, and (as I write this) Q12 in Monza only 0.16s behind Yuki - he’s doing great.
I have my fingers crossed for a good result tomorrow.
Very impressive achievement, no practice, rain, 1st time and brought it home, not even last (which would be a good achievement in itself). He seems very level headed, this is an important quality to have and to keep.
He is so grounded unlike some other F1 drivers
As a DR3 fan this was a great watch. And Liam will now be on my list of drivers to follow. What a humble and impressive human!
You done kissing his ass yet ?
Great stuff Liam. All the best lad.
As a fellow Kiwi and have a completely unbiased opinion. This kid has it and I look forward to seeing his future endeavors. Good luck to you Liam!
Very legitimate answers, excited for him. You can see and feel the journey and the dream , great interview. All the best!,,
I like how he mentioned playing the F1 2010 videogame, that game's feeling of immersion was amazing
Great interview 👍
As a fellow kiwi, I'm so proud of you and wish you well in your racing career.
give this man a seat....
Great video. Good job Liam. Good stories.
Rare insight. Nicely done.
Two races now in the pocket and the first being so totally unexpected, I was deeply impressed and last weekend Monza what a solid drive with I think the best AT finish of the season? (correct me if I'm wrong, and such a shame about what happened to Yuki). I can't help but feel Liam is a HUGE promise for the future, a gem stone that needs to be given all opportunity to grow and glow.. a future RB-2? What a genuine young man, composed and down to earth, listening to this.
Yuki scored points on 3 occasions (10th place). Regardless Liam’s drive was excellent to P11. A rookie but seems like a safe pair of hands. I expect next year AT to have DR and LL. Sad but Yuki is improving but still not impressing.
@@InfinityX2 with yuki to another team or dropped? cause i highly doubt they will drop yuki given that he's been outperforming the car all season
@@willsharp4392 tough one I agree. Yuki is well in his 3rd year and doing what is expected [edit: in a backmarker team, getting an occasional result]. There is a reason Nyck and Danny Ric were/are in a junior team. He should be up or out and I don’t see him in an RB seat and I don’t think RB see Yuki progress enough. My guess (as good or bad as anyone’s 😄) is RB is looking for a 2025 driver (or 24 if Checo does not deliver consistently). Danny Ric could potentially be the stopgap for RB and Liam longterm prospect if he delivers.
@@willsharp4392 to round off. yuki to Williams next year.
@@InfinityX2Yuki has a huge amount of backing from Honda. He's basically keeping the AlphaTauri seat warm until Honda jump over to Aston Martin in 2026. He wouldn't have the financial backing to go anywhere else in the meantime.
I've been following Liam, mostly because I'm a kiwi and I'd love to see a fellow country person on the grid. So some potential bias in my opinion here. I haven't seen a driver in interviews with the maturity Liam projects. He's able to self reflect in a way you have the impression there's a vault of potential genius to come. The fact he not only finished that first GP given the crazy weather and to finish mid field is a noteworthy achievement. To be shy of the points in the second full race and just behind your experienced teammate shows F1 is a place he can be.
I knew this kid has it as soon as he started driving dtm and beat Alex, definitely a future race winner
Liam was amazing in Zandvoort, I hope we will see him in AT for 2024
Love how he keeps calling him Dr Marko like his teacher
Such a nice video. It'd be great to, in general, see more videos like this. Hope he does great tomorrow in the race. Qualifying was already pretty good.
Rooting for ya Liam! boss it!
Better than DTS. Can't wait to see this bloke get a permanent seat on the grid! Go Liam!
This is his 3rd week and hes SLAYING!!!!!
This kid belongs. He and yuki both did well in Suzuka with Liam having a slight edge.
What a great and honest interview by Liam Lawson. He gave a honest and frank interview about his call up to take over from Daniel Riccardo and his feelings watching the other drivers go out on track. What a marvellous young man he is. After looking at his five race results I can’t believe he didn’t get an F1 drive for 2024, but to be a reserve driver for RedBull can’t be sniffed at either. I wish him all the best for 2024 and hope the RedBull teams give this young man another shot in the car. 👍🏻👍🏻
To Liam Lawson, RedBull F1, and Alpha Centauri F1 have a fantastic Christmas. 👍🏻👍🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Good luck for Monza today! I'm Italian-French and I love the italian Scuderia Alphatauri! ❤
What are well-spoken young man credit to f1 and obviously his family this bloke needs a drive somewhere full-time
Liam, we want you in F1 ASAP.
Love we got this POV altough the outro jumpscared me
4:32 ‘sell my soul’…interesting turn of phrase haha
Dr. Marco👹😧
Liam Lawson is of the same calibre as Alex Albon in the car as well as outside (communication with crew and also media). I have seen them race together in the same series and in the same team. He has got the skills, experience and conviction. He does not bring a lot of money with him, but I would not be surprised if at some point he finds his way to Williams, Aston Martin or even no.2 Red Bull. I hope Williams (sorry Alpha Tauri), because Albon-Lawson team has been great in the past.
Go get em Liam⭐️
-did you enjoy the race at all?
*instant war flashbacks*
Sad for daniel, but i am so happy Liam finally gets the chance to drive in f1 ❤️ love this guy
Didn't know much about Lawson prior to this whole scenario, but you've absolutely got to take an opportunity when it comes. There were some people who saw his first F1 drive and went "that wasn't that impressive," and I was like, you've got to be joking. You could not have picked a worse drive to debut on, and he not only held it together, but managed to finish in 13th. Isn't that what you want to see in a potential rookie, that the universe could literally throw everything and the kitchen sink at him, and he brought it back home. I'm rooting for him. Just when you thought silly season was just about wrapped up, he's the potential spanner in the works.
It's just that Hamilton, Verstappen, Vettel, Norris and the lot have forever ruined being a rookie for people
Yeah, I didn't really like how Palmer dismissed Lawson's performance as nothing special. I say if Lawson keeps getting opportunities he will prove his talent even to the doubters.
@@LeJimster Maybe he's De Vries shell shocked. Understandably people may not want to get on the hype train after just one drive anymore, but still you have to give credit where credit is actually due. Definitely hope he gets to go all the way through Singapore because that's a tough one too to show his worth.
LI(am-laws)ON🦁
Clever guy.
I'm happy for Liam that he's getting the opportunity to prove himself, but at the same time, I'm sad that Daniel is missing his opportunity. So far, Liam looks like he's grabbing the bull by the horns and making the best of what he's been given. Keep up the good work!
Such a great insight look. Well done team
11:57 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Welcome!
i cant wait for lawson to join F1 , good kid
This flying kiwi is a star of the future. He has had a very solid start to his burgeoning F1 career, done everything that has been asked of him, so why wouldn't someone sign him.
I really do like Checo & Dan so would hate for either of them to miss out on a seat (although I can see Dan doing well in the Supercars series if he was to miss out on a seat in F1), but at the same time it wouldn't be fair for Liam to miss out on a seat for 2024. You're risking lossing him to a rival team if you don't find a way to sign him for next year.
Amazing guy, he has got it. No mistakes and still fast.
In 1996 I picked a chubby kiwi school kid to be the next world champion and so began the funding and support for Scott Dixon. Just as I picked Dixon I also have no doubt Liam is going to be a world champion. He’s an incredibly rare talent with that X factor of kiwi genius.
My bro is setting the world on fire! Kia kaha e hoa!
Liam seems to be much mature than others his age. Great work so far in the Dutch GP and Monza quali
Looking forward to seeing him on the grid. Rooting for you, good man.
Get in!!
Very classy guy!
The maturity he showed last week was incredible, the first time he drove the car on slicks was in the race and on a wet track. He had no reference to go on. That would be super challanging.
He was learning to drive the car in the race as well as coping with everything else. Huge effect.
Then today too qualify 12th at Monza just behind his team mate, that is another stellar performance.
I love his honesty. And you can see the HUNGER in this young man.
No wonder he's done so well. Monza 2023 later as I write this, but his performance in Quali is already making Liam look like he IS ready for Formula 1. I mean, after all, there were eight veteran drivers behind his spot on the grid when the last chequered flag flew.
Anyone know if Liam had to use all of DRs car settings? Namely seat and pedals. Chr bro Liam, smash it
Slowcardo needed to go! Glad to see Liam get a F1 drive ⛳
you spelt your name wrong in the subtitles
he is bloody good
This feels like an interrogation rather then an interview lol.
Fantastic interview. Humble and honest guy. Refreshing .. really hope he can find a permanent seat .. somewhere.
Liam Has Got a Amazing Debut He Overtook a Ferrari!
And max at one point
And he beat Yuki
And a Verstappen
Most impressive is to get 9-9.5 hours of sleep after Saturday.
Kiwi power! we're not here to take part, we're here to take over!
Nice!
Hope Daniel gets a quick recovery
(first)
I really hope Liam gets a seat with Alpha Tauri next year.
Go Kiwi. I’m sure you will do us proud!
I hope he will enjoy the race in Monza!
I feel they won't renew Yuki and sign him soon
I wonder if the 7 hour time difference made a difference?
defo with sleep, probably why he couldnt sleep well first night before p3
Liam "you only get one shot at Formula 1".
Fernando, Kimi, Daniel and Michael enter the chat.
Just noticed that Daniel is the only non-WDC so adding Alex to the chat too.
yeah, but all these drivers got a 2nd shot because they were successful on their 1st shot. If you don't nail your first shot, that will be your last shot...
More Vowles verdict please
You'd think the reserve drivers at these races would be invited to the Driver's briefings to learn since theyre the next in line?
Lewis Hamilton said that Daniel went to all the drivers briefings
Very well said Liam. We’re all proud of you 🫶🏻
Wait, so is he saying that had a meeting with Dr Marko the morning before the accident?
He arrived from Japan the previous night and was scheduled to meet the boss. Marko has made it clear Liam’s first objective is to win SF, so I imagine there was a lot of discussion over Motegi. No doubt other things were discussed ..
I have high hopes for this kid to get signed as a main driver real soon!
Who, on earth, was the camera man?
This guy is the complete opposite of max verstapern
its spelt AlphaTauri not alphatory
Go Liam! Us Kiwi's are right behind you and wish you all the best for Monza.👍
I think Alpha Tauri can Try 2 young driver who can help them to become top team in 2026 new Regulations.
They should abandoned Daniel Ricciardo or Tsunoda.
They can chose like William even they each year goes become bottom team.
this year after get best management and improve experience driver ( still young )
Up da wahs
So excited Liam has got his chance. And lets be honest, Danny Ric is wasted in the AlphaTauri and should be in a better car. This is the perfect opportunity for Liam and I hope it progresses to a full time drive next year.
They should swap Perez with Ricardo and put Lawson in the alpha tauri
The alpha tauri is wasted with Daniel
Hope this message gets through to Liam Lawson. It'd be great to have either a Japanese or Australian team mate for Lawson,. NZ has so many sister cities in Japan, and there's always the ANZAC's.
...so what does this make Yuki?
Really like liam, just a bit sad he got his chance in Daniels seat
Liam seems to be very much in the Piastri mould of F1s future.
EA should base the F1 24 story mode on this 😂
Up the Wahs!
if Riccardo looses his seat he deserves the seat
Chur Liam ⛳
