Having spent 2024 on the sidelines, Liam Lawson<\/a> has become a leading candidate to join Williams. The Grove-based team have seriously considered putting Lawson alongside Alex Albon for the rest of the season. However, it is understood that Red Bull’s terms for an agreement have turned James Vowles<\/a> away from further pursuing the Kiwi.<\/p>\n

Red Bull complicates negotiations<\/h4>\n

With Carlos Sainz already on a multi-year contract, a mid-season move to Williams would only be temporary for Lawson. In many ways, this is a perfect scenario – given that Lawson would still be available for Red Bull next year.<\/p>\n

However, as is often the case, there are several layers to unpack at Red Bull. Despite the team’s recent comments in support of Sergio Perez, his position at Red Bull is uncertain.<\/p>\n

There is every possibility he could be replaced later in the season.<\/p>\n

Because of this, the reigning Champions would only send Lawson<\/a> on loan under specific terms.<\/p>\n
