Racing Bulls expects to decide its 2027 driver line-up in the coming weeks, team principal Alan Permane said in Singapore on Friday. He declined to give a firm date, saying the team was not in a rush and would take more time to find the right pairing.

RacingNews365 puts three names in contention for two seats: Liam Lawson, Arvid Lindblad and Formula 2 driver Nikola Tsolov. Motorsport.com names Lawson and Tsolov as possible team-mates for Lindblad.

Permane said speed and pace were high on the team's list of considerations. He also said Racing Bulls wants to develop young drivers with an eye on what they could achieve in the future.
