Untelevised team radio footage from the Bahrain Grand Prix has revealed the moment Liam Lawson renewed his rivalry with the Aston Martin team after a clash with Lance Stroll.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lawson is yet to score a point in his first full season in F1 2025, with the New Zealander dropped by Red Bull Racing after just two rounds of the new season.<\/p>\n

Liam Lawson rants over team radio after Lance Stroll Bahrain GP clash<\/p>\n

Lawson finished 17th on his first race back with the Racing Bulls junior team in Japan before coming home 16th in Bahrain last Sunday.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old incurred two separate time penalties totalling 15 seconds over the course of the race in Sakhir, with Lawson first picking up his first punishment after a clash with Stroll\u2019s Aston Martin.<\/p>\n

Lawson launched a move on Stroll at Turn 1 on Lap 32, with the Racing Bulls driver running deep into the corner to allow the Aston Martin back ahead.<\/p>\n

Stroll turned into the left hander of Turn 2 with his left-rear tyre making contact with the right-front of Lawson on his inside.<\/p>\n

Lawson is informed the Safety Car has been deployed for debris before launching a rant at Stroll.<\/p>\n

He says: \u201cWait, what is this guy doing? Honestly. What is he doing? He just literally turned across me like I wasn\u2019t there.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll report it,\u201d his race engineer replies. \u201cIs the car OK to drive? Do you think you have damage?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe bent my steering but I\u2019m going to keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stroll went on to finish 17th, failing to score for the second race in succession after two consecutive points finishes to start the season in Australia and China last month.<\/p>\n

Lawson\u2019s latest skirmish with an Aston Martin driver comes after he established a rivalry with Stroll\u2019s team-mate, the two-time World Champion Fernando Alonso, upon his return to F1 at last year\u2019s United States Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

Alonso was left upset by Lawson\u2019s aggressive defensive tactics in the sprint race in Austin, with the pair spotted having an animated conversation in parc ferme after the race.<\/p>\n

Alonso later moved ahead of Lawson in the queue of cars in qualifying later than day, with Lawson claiming after the session that Alonso had earlier warned that he would<\/a> \u201cscrew me\u201d in an act of revenge for their sprint race feud.<\/p>\n

At the Qatar Grand Prix weeks later, Lawson accused Alonso of \u201cpurposely\u201d slowing up to impede him after aborting his own lap in qualifying.<\/p>\n

However, he was informed by his race engineer that the Aston Martin in his way actually belonged to Stroll instead.<\/p>\n
