Red Bull driver Liam Lawson has spilled the beans on the F1 drivers' dinner ahead of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix where Max Verstappen and George Russell were supposed to sit alongside each other. The four-time F1 world champion and the Mercedes driver had a heated war of words before the season finale at the Yas Marina Circuit regarding their controversial moment in Qatar.
While appearing on the PitStop podcast, Lawson shared that the rest of the drivers decided to take the mickey out of the heated exchanges between Verstappen and Russell to dial down the tension, revealing:
"So we rock up and we're at this big table and me and Yuki got there together and we weren't the first people there. But as the table was filling up, there was pretty much one side of the table was pretty much full. There were like three chairs to the left at the center of the table that were left and George hadn't turned up at this point.
