    Liam Lawson's logged the 12th-fastest time in the final practice session before tomorrow's Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka

    Liam Lawson's logged the 12th-fastest time in the final practice session before tomorrow's Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka


    The Kiwi driver's best time of 1 minute 29.104 seconds was 1.139 seconds off McLaren's Lando Norris, who set the fastest time of the session.

    Lawson was also able to get through all three sessions and get through runs on all three different tyre compounds - soft, medium and hard.

    However, he was also the slowest of the four Red Bull-affiliated cars ... 0.318 seconds back from Racing Bulls teammate Isack Hadjar, who finished with the 10th-fastest time ... while Red Bull stablemates Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda finished fifth and ninth respectively.
