LawVS - The Ladder Man

Liam Lawson vs Arvid Lindblad. The overlooked teammate rivalry.

Racing Bulls told Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad they were free to race. Just don’t touch...what did they do, you wonder? They touched. A much bigger question about Alan Permane’s management has emerged. With his colleagues having solid seasons in 2026, Lindblad must be fighting to establish himself; and his rivalry with Lawson has become one of F1 2026’s stories which I think doesn't get talked about enough! Is VCARB's relaxed approach to team orders asking too much from Lawson and not enough from the rookie?

Esteban Ocon is leaving Haas F1...and Ferrari’s influence may have had something to do with it.

Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs Ocon’s Haas exit is now official, but the reasons behind it could be far more interesting than a simple saying Oliver Bearman was faster for the billionth time. Brazil's Rafael Camara reportedly impressed Haas during private testing at Portimao, while Ferrari may also be offering favourable terms on the parts Haas relies upon.

And one more thing. With Haas being the smallest team and unable to reach the cost cap, could Ocon's own salary have acted against him? It might have, since the team still rate his experience and feedback. Could Toyota make use of that ELSEWHERE?

Christian Horner keeps getting linked to Ferrari. But why does this story refuse to go away despite multiple rebuttals?

Ferrari says it still has full confidence in Fred Vasseur and current reporting says Christian Horner and Ferrari aren’t discussing a role...yet Horner’s name keeps returning to Maranello, years after John Elkann already tried to hire him...what's up with that?! Would Christian Horner really fix Ferrari, or would Ferrari have to change first before he would have walk in the door? Would Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton welcome him with open arms?

As Russell got a grand slam, the Alpine had a slam of their own...

George Russell was over ten seconds clear yet a technical issue almost cost him the race! How did THAT happen?

We also had a lot of other things happen too! There was Franco Colapinto and Pierre Gasly colliding, Lando Norris sounding off, the two Racing Bulls clashing again...and Isack Hadjar's return from injury yielded plenty of interesting radio banter.

Who else won, lost or was just plain meh around the streets of Baku?

Adrian Newey, Fernando Alonso, Honda and all that money were supposed to make Aston Martin a superteam for 2026. Instead, we've got Alonso and Lance Stroll still propping up the Formula 1 grid. Hungary’s upgrade gave us a reason to believe, so how are we back here?At what point does this F1 project start asking more of the name than it gives back?
