Liam Lawson assesses 'completely new' 2026 F1 cars after shakedown

Summary
Liam Lawson says the 2026 F1 car is "very different to drive," with less downforce and a new approach to energy management. He highlighted the team's strong reliability during the Barcelona shakedown but stressed it's too early for comparisons with rivals.
