Lindblad eager to build on rookie season alongside Lawson in 2027

Arvid Lindblad called his first Formula 1 season “a truly special year” and said he was eager to build on what he had learned. Racing Bulls confirmed he will continue alongside Liam Lawson in 2027.

Lindblad said the season brought new experiences and learning from the first pre-season test onward. He also thanked VCARB and Red Bull for their trust and support.

Racing Bulls had delayed its decision while weighing its options; team principal Alan Permane ultimately chose continuity over a late reshuffle involving Formula 2 frontrunner Nikola Tsolov.

Lawson said the team was fighting for fifth in the 2026 constructors’ championship. A fifth-place finish would be Racing Bulls’ highest since it entered Formula 1 in 2006.
