Max Verstappen cites teammate Liam Lawson adapting fast as sign 2026 F1 cars are 'numb'
Max Verstappen has cited teammate Liam Lawson’s ability to adapt after stepping in mid-season at Red Bull as a sign that current Formula 1 cars are “numb to your driver inputs”. The four-time F1 champion has told the BBC in an interview it’s “unnatural” that the 2026 cars can require drivers to brake earlier into corners for the best exit speed. Verstappen suggests it’s one reason that Lawson has adapted quickly after replacing the injured Isack Hadjar for the last two races.
