Liam Lawson has been promoted into Red Bull's senior team in Formula One. He'll race alongside Max Verstappen next season after Red Bull parted ways with Sergio Perez. Founder of the Toyota Racing Series Barrie Thomlinson says Red Bull will have chosen Lawson based on his future talent. Thomlison says if Lawson performs at a high level, he will likely be the person to replace Max Verstappen. LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In what will be my last structured rant of 2024, I'll finish on a high. That high is Liam Lawson. He is following in the footsteps of NZ F1 greats such as Hulme, McLaren and Amon. He is the 10th Kiwi to breathe the rarefied air of Formula 1 and this week he inhaled the deepest breath of all. The news on Thursday night that the young man raised in Pukekohe had secured a Red Bull contract for 2025, racing for one of the best teams in Formula One, is still sinking in. After many years of battling through the categories on his way to the Everest of the sport, life just got a whole lot tougher. From karts to Formula First, through the Toyota Racing Series, Formula 3, the DTM and Formula 2 and some tantalising tastes of Formula 1 through the Racing Bulls team, this hot shoe has steadfastly kept his eyes locked on the prize. Now, after a drawn out and at times frustrating final run at a permanent seat, he's struck gold. Liam Lawson has arrived. He's ruffled feathers along the way, proving to many that his attitude and race craft is that of a Formula 1 pilot. Accusations of a lack of respect for the veterans of the sport have been met with measured aggression, a refusal to acquiesce to the insanity of an experience based hierarchy. He races with his elbows out, knowing that respect in motorsport comes when you beat the other guy fair and square. Names, teams and reputation mean bugger all. Liam is a pure racer, and that's what has taken him this far. He's at base camp now, this is where his years of toil and his bloody-minded attitude to the sport will need to be concentrated further for his final assault on the summit. Getting a seat in F1 is one thing, getting a seat in one of the top teams partnering the 4 times reigning champion Max Verstappen is another, but holding on to that seat and being instrumental in Red Bulls return to the constructor's championship, that's the greatest step he needs to take. Beyond that? It's not worth thinking about. His entire life has been focused on this one opportunity. As difficult as the lead up has been to securing this incredibly rare role, it's been nothing compared to what he faces now. Formula 1 is immense. It's tied together by billions of dollars. The world is watching as the most insane sporting circus on the planet blasts through almost every continent. There is nowhere to hide. There are no excuses. For a kid from Aotearoa, whose parents sold their house to pay for what was essentially a pipe dream of a petrol head youngster, this is one of the most outstanding stories in New Zealand sport. It's had peaks and troughs;it's been many years in the making and now is the time to shine. The real work starts now. And I am so here for it. That'll do.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

4 de 20… o lo que es lo mismo, un 20 por ciento de la parrilla de la F1 habla español… no está mal. A Fernando Alonso, “checo” Pérez y Carlos Sainz se les une ahora Franco Colapinto, un argentino que es un auténtico fenómeno en la pista… y fuera de ella, también. En España hay, digamos, “cierta” afición a la F1, sobre todo con la llegada de los títulos de Fernando Alonso. Y es que a los españoles nos gustan los deportes sobre todo cuando uno de los nuestros gana. Pero a diferencia de España en México, Argentina y en general en toda mi querida América que va desde los USA de Norteamérica para abajo, se vive el automóvil de otra manera: Allí hay verdadera pasión por el automóvil y por la F1... No han tenido excelentes pilotos… no… han tenido EXCEPCIONALES pilotos… El último en llegar ha sido Franco Colapinto, un chaval de 21 años que ha sorprendido por su desparpajo, como os decía, dentro y fuera de la pista… lo veremos en detalle… Creo que en pocos países se vive la pasión por las carreras en general y por la F1 en particular como Argentina. Quizás tenga que ver con que el para mí, con permiso de Senna, es el mejor piloto de la historia de la F1 haya sido argentino, el gran Juan Manuel Fangio. O quizás porque ha habido, aunque no lo sepáis, casi 30 argentinos que han probado suerte en la F1. O quizás, simplemente por su carácter. Sea como fuera la llegada de Franco Colapinto ha vuelto a poner a los argentinos en el mapa de la F1… ¡y de qué manera! Hacia 23 años que no había un piloto argentino en la F1 y ¡42 años!, sí, nada menos que 42 que un argentino no puntuaba en un GP de F1, desde que lo hiciese el “Lole” Reutemann en el GP de Sudáfrica de 1982. Escribo este guion el 11 de octubre de 2024… no sé qué hará nuestro protagonista en lo que queda de la temporada 2024, pero, haga lo que haga, creo que el fenómeno Colapinto es una realidad. Es joven, guapo, auténtico, divertido, un poco “sobrao” … y, sobre todo, tremendamente eficaz cuando se pone al volante de un F1. Me sorprende es que el palmarés de Franco no está nada mal… pero desde luego no es el típico piloto tipo Senna, tipo Prost y como el de Pedro de la Rosa, que llegan a la F1 después de arrasar en todos los campeonatos en los que han participado… No, Franco Colapinto no lo he hecho mal, pero desde luego no ha arrasado. Sí ganó el Campeonato de España de F4 en 2019, pero en los campeonatos Toyota Racing Series y Eurocopa de Fórmula Renault en 2020, fue tercero. Por fin llegó al Campeonato de Fórmula 3 de la FIA y en 2023 terminó quinto en el Campeonato, que fue ganado por el brasileño Gabriel Bortoleto. No era una campeonato, pero en Argentina ya estaban ansiosos porque su piloto diese el salto a la F2, la antesala de la F1… Pero las carreras, cuestan mucho dinero. En una entrevista dijo: “es muy difícil seguir en Europa sin presupuesto y apoyo” y que estaba “luchando para tener presupuesto” y poder dar el salto a la Fórmula 2. En ese momento el apoyo de dos famosos argentinos fue clave. Uno fue el ingeniero, empresario y emprendedor Martin Bigoya fundador de Globant, una de las empresas argentinas de mayor proyección. El otro fue Gonzalo Julián Conde más conocido por Bizarrap es uno de los productores discográficos, compositores y “DJ” más famoso de Argentina y entre los más conocidos del mundo. Ayudó a Colapinto no solo poniendo su propio dinero, sino usando su influencia para atraer otros apoyos, como el citado de Globant y de YPF. Y vio que Franco Colapinto era bueno en RR.SS. y daba bien a cámara. Además como decía es guapo y con desparpajo. E inició una campaña para conseguir la financiación necesaria para dar el salto a la F2 bajo el hashtag #FranColapintoaF2. Y por fin Franco llegó en 2024 a la F2… por poco tiempo… hizo unas cuantas carreras, consiguió tres podios, uno de ellos una victoria en un sprint y cuando iba en sexta posición fue llamado por el equipo Williams para sustituir a Logan Sargeant. ¡Menudo enfado se agarró Ralf Schumacher! No entendía que Williams eligiese a un novato, casi novato incluso en la F2, como era y es Franco Colapinto, en vez de a su sobrino, Mick Schumacher. En F1 tu mayor rival es…tu compañero de equipo. Con tu compañero de equipo no puedes argumentar que “tiene mejor coche” … porque tiene el mismo. O debería. El compañero de Colapinto es el tailandés Alex Albon un piloto con mucha experiencia, lleva disputados en el momento de escribir este guion 100 GG.PP. y ha conseguido dos podios… desde luego no va a ser el sucesor de Schumacher o Hamilton, pero “manco” no es. Y Colapinto desde el primer momento ha estado muy cerca de él y en muchas ocasiones, le ha superado. Veremos lo que hace en lo que queda de 2024, porque a día de hoy para 2025 le quita el asiento otro “hispano-parlante”: Carlos Sainz. Vamos a hablar de Colapinto cuando se baja del coche. En una entrevista en “El Hormiguero”, un programa de gran audiencia es España, Franco dio la nota. La entrevista fue especialmente entretenida, pero particularmente me pasó como con algunos dulces, que el primer bocado te encanta pero al cuarto ya estás empachado. Y eso me paso con Franco. Le dijo al presentador que no tenía ni “pu** idea” de F1 ni de conducir, que los nombres de las hormigas “Trancas y Barrancas” eran “unos nombres de mierda” y al especialista en trucos técnicos no le hizo caso de ninguno de sus consejos, ni se puso gafas ni protecciones. A mí comenzó pareciéndome un tío con mucho desparpajo para, según pasaban los minutos, convertirse en un “sobrao”. Pensé “es que tiene 21 años” … mi hijo a esa edad era también un poco “sobrao”, lo sigue siendo, y no corre en F1. También pensé: “Bueno, es argentino” … tengo mucho cariño a los argentinos, pero hay algunos un poco “sobraos” ... pero mi hijo es así y no es argentino. Al final me di cuenta: Es que un piloto de F1, sobre todo joven y ambicioso, debe ser así. Siempre lo he dicho, los mejores pilotos de la F1 eran grandes maestros, pero no un dechado de modestia, educación y buen trato… Ya sabéis que hay entre los más grandes, una excepción, Fangio... pero eran otros tiempos. Franco cuando le dijeron que había mucha gente sorprendida de que superaba a Albon él dijo: “Yo lo esperaba no estoy sorprendido”. ¡Me encanta que tengamos un argentino en la F1! Y Creo que Franco puede dar a todos los aficionados, y más a los argentinos, muchas alegrías. Tengo curiosidad por ver que pasa el año que viene, en el que en teoría regresa a la F2… ¿no os parece una pena? Ya que hemos dedicado al video a un argentino, sigamos en esta línea: ¿Qué os parece como coche del día el Pagani Utopía? Horacio Pagani es un argentino que ha creado su propia marca de super deportivos y su último modelo, sucesor de los Zonda y Huayra es el Utopía, un modelo con su carrocería y chasis casi enteramente realizado en fibra de carbono, con motor Mercedes Benz V12 biturbo de 6 litros y 863 CV para un peso de 1.280 kilos.

Liam Lawson, New Zealand's tenth Formula One driver, has had the world's premier motorsport category in his cross hairs since for as long as he can remember. In late 2018, at age 16, he joined D'Arcy Waldegrave and Bob McMurray in studio to talk about his hopes and dreams for the wonderful wide world of race cars. He had just signed up for a drive in the Toyota Racing Series, a series he went on to win in his maiden year. It was that contract that alerted Red Bull to his talent, and the rest is history.

Esto es un extracto de la tertulia de AUTOFM que se emite todos los jueves en Onda Cero. Franco Colapinto, nacido el 27 de mayo de 2003 en Pilar, Buenos Aires, tiene también nacionalidad italiana por parte de su familia. Su carrera en el automovilismo comenzó desde muy joven, como es común entre pilotos de Fórmula 1, destacándose inicialmente en el karting. En 2016 ganó el campeonato nacional prejúnior de karting y comenzó a competir a nivel internacional. Su primer gran logro internacional fue en 2018, cuando ganó en la disciplina de karts en los Juegos Olímpicos de la Juventud en Buenos Aires. Ese mismo año debutó en monoplazas en la Fórmula 4 Española con el equipo Drivex. Uno de los hitos más importantes en su carrera ocurrió en 2023, cuando se unió a la Academia de Pilotos de Williams, un programa de la escudería británica para desarrollar jóvenes talentos. Esta academia ha producido pilotos como Lance Stroll, Nicholas Latifi y Logan Sargeant. Su inclusión en este programa marcó un punto clave para su futuro en la Fórmula 1. Trayectoria hacia la F1: Franco Colapinto avanzó rápidamente en las categorías de automovilismo. En 2019 ganó el Campeonato de España de Fórmula 4, lo que lo puso en el radar de equipos importantes. En 2020 fue tercero en la Toyota Racing Series y en la Eurocopa de Fórmula Renault. En 2021 logró el cuarto puesto en las Asian Le Mans Series, y en 2023 quedó cuarto en el Campeonato de Fórmula 3 de la FIA. Este progreso constante lo llevó a competir en la Fórmula 2 en 2024 con el equipo MP Motorsport, participando en diez rondas del campeonato. Su rendimiento lo posicionó para debutar en la Fórmula 1, convirtiéndose en piloto titular de Williams en el Gran Premio de Italia, reemplazando a Logan Sargeant, quien no logró los resultados esperados por el equipo. Escudería Williams: Desde su debut en la Fórmula 1 en el Gran Premio de Italia, Colapinto comparte equipo con Alex Albon en Williams. Logan Sargeant, quien tenía un contrato hasta 2025, fue desplazado debido a su bajo rendimiento, lo que permitió que Colapinto ocupara su lugar. Franco tendrá la oportunidad de demostrar su talento durante el resto de la temporada, lo que será crucial para asegurar su permanencia en la categoría más alta del automovilismo. Vida personal: Aunque Colapinto prefiere mantener su vida privada alejada de los medios, se han generado rumores sobre su vida amorosa. Se dice que mantuvo una relación con la modelo Estelle Ogilvy, quien ahora es pareja del piloto de Ferrari, Oliver Bearman. También se ha especulado sobre un posible romance con la cantante Nicki Nicole, aunque esto no ha sido confirmado. Sin embargo, Colapinto mantiene un perfil bajo y es poco probable que se conozcan más detalles pronto. En resumen, Franco Colapinto es uno de los talentos emergentes del automovilismo, con un historial de éxitos en categorías inferiores y ahora, en 2024, con la oportunidad de consolidarse en la Fórmula 1 como piloto titular de Williams.

Supercars are in flyaway mode, back in New Zealand for a sellout event in the centre of the North Island they're calling the Super400. Tickford Racing's Thomas Randle joins us trackside to talk about a circuit he's raced for real.... and virtually.   The Castrol Mustang driver had a podium finish here during his title winning season in the fiercely competitive Toyota Racing Series in 2017. While Supercars is his focus now, he also runs Dream Simulation - a globally recognised SIM training facility in Melbourne which must have come in handy for his Round 3 prep. https://www.dreamsimulation.com.au/team Can the Ford drivers (who've been fast in qualifying this season) breakthrough for a win as Mustang celebrates 60 years? What we can expect from the 200k races each day across the weekend and some laughs as Randle turns pro voiceover for some safety announcements.

In episode # 21 we have HAYDEN PADDON on Zoom …. Err … what …. no we don't.

After one of the most dramatic runnings of the New Zealand Grand Prix at Manfeild, Liam Lawson has won both a maiden NZGP crown, the rookie of the year title, and the 2019 Toyota Racing Series championship simultaneously. He's the first Kiwi to win the Grand Prix since Nick Cassidy in 2014, and the first to win the series since Cassidy again in 2013.It was a chaotic race packed with red-flag periods, and underlined by a critical penalty for Lawson's leading rival Marcus Armstrong. The penalty, a five-second time addition post-race, came after the title rivals made contact with each other while wrestling for first.Armstrong's penalty scored mixed reactions. It followed similar lines to the penalty Armstrong incurred in race two, but — ironically — Nick Cassidy was among those to think it was a harsh call at the end of the five-week series. Armstrong ended the race second but dejected for a second year running.After getting a few average race starts, Lawson made a cracking jump off the line to kick off the Grand Prix. Unfortunately for him, title rival Armstrong had an equally impressive start from the second row.By turn one, Armstrong was somehow alongside Lawson. The pair were millimetres from side contact — Armstrong getting past at turn three before immediately running wide and giving the lead back to Lawson.It was clear early that Lawson and Armstrong were the quickest drivers on track. Soon they had a gap of over three seconds over Auer, who also had a managable gap over Brendon Leitch in fourth (who himself soon lost his spot to an invigorated Esteban Muth).Lawson [left] consoles Armstrong at the end of the NZ Grand Prix. Photo / Matthew HansenBefore the race could get into a rhythm, a crash on lap nine brought out the red flag. The unlucky Petr Ptacek crashed out at the last corner, hopping out of his car under his own steam.After a few minutes of clean-up, the race was under way again; Lawson leading Armstrong, Auer, Muth, Cameron Das, and Raoul Hyman. But a six-car pile-up on lap 12 would bring out another red flag.It was triggered by a fierce battle for third between Muth and Auer — Muth making a superb move at turn one and then defending through turns two and three. This opened the door for Leitch to get by before turn four, and in turn Das thought he had a sniff until Auer closed the door at turn four.The Austrian and American made contact, Auer spun, and the long train of Hyman, Thomas Smith, Artem Petrov, and Calan Williams all piled in nose-to-tail. Petrov almost avoided the melee, but a glancing blow was enough to rip a corner off his M2 Competition FT-50.Photo / Matthew HansenAnother red flag ensued, as most of the crashed cars became retirements. Among the few to not simply retire was Hyman, who pulled into pit-lane for repairs. Another track recovery phase came and went, and the race was back under way with 21 laps still to go. And here the race's complexion changed.Armstrong made a strong restart, culminating in a dive on Lawson at turn one. As they've done numerous times this year they ran side-by-side until Lawson ran wide through turn three. The Turners driver tracked through the grass and dirt; somehow keeping straight and not spinning out. He kept his right foot planted, and rejoined the order fourth in the queue behind Leitch. Away from the coverage, the move was under investigation from officialdom.Despite the dramatic circumstances, Lawson didn't waste any time in trying to claw his way back. At the beginning of the next lap he launched inside Leitch at turn one, getting the move done without any trouble. He had started catching up to Muth, when another red flag stopped the action.Photo / Matthew HansenThis time it was for a frightening clash between Dev Gore and Jackson Walls on the back straight. The pair interlocked wheels at high speed, with both looping into the inside concrete wall. Both drivers luckily were able to get out of their cars — Walls in particular, given th...
