Naomi Schiff points to Red Bull advantage after Dutch GP driver change

The Dutch Grand Prix saw Red Bull Racing make a driver change due to Isack Hadjar's wrist injury, bringing in Liam Lawson from their sister team, Racing Bulls. This decision has reignited conversations about the advantages of having teams under the same ownership, particularly in terms of driver familiarity with the car specifications. Yuki Tsunoda also stepped in to race for Racing Bulls, filling the gap left by Lawson's promotion.

Naomi Schiff, a former W Series driver, emphasized that Lawson's experience with the 2026-specification cars provided him an edge over typical reserve drivers. Lawson finished the race in seventh place, securing six points for Red Bull, while the status of Hadjar's return for the next race remains unclear.
