Beyond the relentless pressure of Formula 1 grand prix weekends, Liam Lawson has proven he possesses notable talents away from the steering wheel. The Kiwi driver recently surprised fans by taking to the microphone and guitar with his band, Liam Lawson & Friends, during the Garage Sessions event hosted by his team over the United States Grand Prix weekend.
Held at an intimate venue in Austin, the gathering drew massive crowds eager to catch a glimpse of the 24-year-old in an entirely different element. Among the spectators was former Red Bull stablemate Daniel Ricciardo, who turned up in the crowd to watch and listen to the impromptu musical performance.
Speaking exclusively to Motorsport Week ahead of the Mexico City event, Lawson confessed that performing live in front of a packed venue induced far more anxiety than lining up on the starting grid for an F1 race. "Isn’t it crazy that in the last week, by far the question I’ve had the most has been about Garage Sessions over anything Formula 1 related?!" he joked.
Recalling the moments before taking the stage, Lawson admitted the scale of the audience caught him off guard. Having completed a quiet soundcheck on Thursday, the sheer volume of attendees on the night proved overwhelming. "There was a moment where I was on the rooftop, and before we went down, I looked over to see how many people were there, and it was just way more than I was expecting. Honestly, by far the most nerve-wracking thing I’ve done," he explained.
True to the perfectionist mindset required in top-tier motorsport, Lawson is already setting his sights on redemption. When asked if he plans to pick up the microphone again, his enthusiasm was evident. "I mean, eventually probably yes. I don’t know when. I definitely want to do it again. I want to do it better because I wasn’t stoked with how we performed, how I performed, but I want to do it again!"
Lawson heads into the final stretch of the campaign with plenty of reasons to smile, having recently been confirmed as a Racing Bulls driver. He will maintain his partnership with young teammate Arvid Lindblad as they build momentum for future campaigns.
