Peter Windsor: Former Williams Team Manager talks F1, previews the Japanese Grand Prix
All eyes are on Japan this weekend as Liam Lawson races for the first time since his demotion from Red Bull Racing.
The Kiwi driver has lost his seat in the Formula 1 team two races into the season, being replaced with Yuki Tsunoda for the Japanese Grand Prix.
Former Williams Team Manager Peter Windsor told Mike Hosking the problem with motorsport and F1 today is that it's very data driven.
He says everything is done according to data and telemetry overlays from the driver in the other car, and there’s just too much information.
“Liam's a very natural racing driver, and he just needs to be allowed to get out there and race.”
