Liam Lawson

ANALYSIS
He would initially grab two spots on the opening lap and jump up to P11 by lap 2. That would boost the team's hopes for scoring points in the season finale. However, an early-race clash with Oliver Bearman would draw the attention of the stewards. Lawson would draw a 5-second penalty for erratic driving. He would serve the penalty after his long opening stint pit stop. Lawson would drop to P20 and lose a lot of track position. From there he'd mired in a back-end battle in Abu Dhabi and struggle to finish P18.
