Alex Powell: For his sake, Liam Lawson needs to tidy up his Formula 1 act
- Liam Lawson from Racing Bulls was penalized for making contact with two-time world champion Fernando Alonso on lap 15 of the 19-lap Miami sprint event.
- The collision happened because Lawson attempted an outside overtake without having his front axle ahead at the apex, violating the Driving Standards Guidelines.
- Alonso lost control, collided with the barrier, and was forced to retire from the race early, while Lawson secured seventh place, earning his first points of the 2025 season.
- The FIA imposed a five-second time penalty and one penalty point on Lawson, noting he now has six points for the 12-month period and deeming the penalty appropriate for the conditions.
- This penalty highlights the FIA’s enforcement of overtaking rules and may impact Lawson’s standing due to accumulated penalty points in the ongoing season.
