Hadjar's wrist injury continues to sideline the Red Bull driver as the team prepares for the Madrid circuit race. The announcement came as the Formula 1 calendar reaches a critical juncture with multiple championship contenders vying for points. His absence marks the third race he will have missed since sustaining the injury.
Lawson, who has proven an effective replacement in recent rounds, will again step into the cockpit for Red Bull this weekend. The driver has demonstrated consistency in filling the role, providing the team with continuity as Hadjar recovers. Red Bull has not yet indicated a timeline for Hadjar's return to full competitive racing.
The Spanish Grand Prix represents another opportunity for Lawson to accumulate experience at the highest level of motorsport while Hadjar continues his rehabilitation. The wrist injury has proven more persistent than initially anticipated, forcing the team to maintain their contingency plans for multiple rounds. Red Bull will be monitoring Hadjar's progress closely as the season progresses.
