    A pit strategy gamble has failed to pay off on Liam Lawson's return to Racing Bulls

    A pit strategy gamble has failed to pay off on Liam Lawson's return to Racing Bulls


    He has come 17th in Formula One's Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka.

    Lawson was eighth at the time of his only pit stop, but the decision to change to soft tyres with 19 laps to go didn't yield the projected return.



    Red Bull stablemate Max Verstappen won with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri completing the podium.
