In his interview after the race, Lawson said that he had not yet been informed about what he would do, but stated that he wanted to race.
โI don't know what I'm going to do yet but it would be great if I race because I know Suzuka a lot better and it will be very interesting to drive a Formula 1 car there,โ Lawson said. he said.
Bayer stated that negotiations for the 2024 driver roster are continuing.
โThe talks are going well. โLiam does everything he needs to do.โ
