Racing Bulls have finally announced their driver lineup for 2027 with Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad both retaining their seats for next season.

The Red Bull sister team has kept anxious fans (and drivers) waiting for weeks to reveal who will be in their cars for next year, but on Thursday morning at least we had the big reveal.

New Zealander Lawson might be the most relieved man in F1 on the back of that announcement, after an agonising wait for his renewal to be announced.

Lawson rewarded for terrific 2026 performances

The 24-year-old has been highly impressive this season, consistently proving the best of the midfield battle outside of the sport's four dominant teams.

Lawson admitted he didn't know what more he could do to prove himself after an excellent seventh-place finish in Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos. He currently sits in ninth place in the 2026 Drivers' standings and also deputised for the injured Isack Hadjar in three races at Red Bull.

There had been consistent speculation that Red Bull could hand Lawson's seat to the exciting young Bulgarian Nikola Tsolov, but that speculation has finally been put to bed.

Lindblad renewal leaves just one 2027 seat open

Lawson's rookie team-mate Lindblad meanwhile also retains his seat after a promising first season in the sport. He sits 11th in the standings with 38 points.

Thursday's announcement means there is now just one seat still open for 2027, the one alongside new boy Rafael Camara at Haas. Brit Ollie Bearman remains favourite to claim that.
