To give more space to the young drivers of the team academies to better integrate into the world of F1, the FIA has decided to impose on the teams of have one or more drivers from his own nursery run in at least two free practice sessions. In the first part of the season, in fact, we saw many teams (especially the smaller teams) race in PL1 or the reserve pilots or own talents. The first top team to hand over the car to an unofficial driver was the Mercedes before the summer break, precisely at French GP. In that case, on the W13's seat Lewis Hamilton was there Nick DeVries.
At Lawson Gasly's AT03 at SPA
Many teams have not yet made any talent debut in the first part of the season, so it means that in the last nine races we will see many new faces aboard the single-seaters. For example, la Haas made it official that, at Monza and Austin, to drive the American car will be Antonio Giovinazzi. But there is a team that already starting from this race weekend, the one in Belgium, will make a young man of their own make his debut huge nursery. We're talking about of the AlphaTauri which he made official via a post on social media, that one will not be driving the AT03 in free practice Pierre Gasly, ma Liam Lawson..
Let's find out the pilot
Liam Lawson. he is an arrived pilot second in the DTM in the last vintage and which is going through a up-and-down period in F2 between retirements and excellent placings. At the moment, the New Zealander is located in eighth place of the drivers' championship, a 31 points by his teammate Logan sargeant which is located at third place and 92 points from the first place occupied by Philip Drugovich. This will be for him the first outing at the wheel of an F1 and he will surely try to show himself to be able to hope to be called to drive a Red Bull and, perhaps, enter the list of possible candidates for a seat in F1.
