Jacques Villeneuve made a blunt statement about Liam Lawson: He considers the driver extremely talented, but...
But he's still alive. Plus, the world champion doesn't like the attitude Lawson represents. He even explained why:
"Let's face it, Lawson's seat was well deserved, he was fast, he did a good job, his straight path led to Red Bull. On the other hand, we've seen talented drivers get promoted to the first team and then burn themselves out there. Plus, Liam is very arrogant, almost pompous, considering how much experience he has. In any case, the fact that he will be Max Verstappen's teammate will test him thoroughly. If he is fast and causes Max problems, then I expect him to.
"But if he can't squeeze Verstappen, then his own habitus will be insufficient to survive. Plus, New Zealand is not a country that gives Formula 1 competition or a huge amount of money to the sport, to the team through the driver. So, he has to be good enough if he wants to make a career, his simple drive will not be enough here," Villeneuve glared at Lawson.
What do you think, will Liam Lawson hold his own?
