Hailing from the island of New Zealand, Liam Lawson is part of a big family. The Racing Bulls driver is the middle child in his family, which includes three sisters and a brother.
Liam Lawson has fast become a regular in the F1 paddock, racing since 2023. The driver began his journey at AlphaTauri as an injury replacement for Daniel Ricciardo in 2023. He permanently replaced the Aussie in the latter half of 2024.
Apart from his dad, Jared, and mom Kristy in the family, Liam has three sisters, Leah, Jessica, and Holly, and one brother named Marcos. They were all born in New Zealand, and their family home is currently in the town of Pukekohe.
Leah Lawson
Leah Lawson, 19, is the youngest of Liam Lawson’s siblings and currently lives with her family in Pukekohe, New Zealand. Not much is known about Leah, as she has kept her personal life private. But the Kiwi has been vocal about her brother’s F1 career via Instagram. Most recently, she shared her disapproval after Lawson was demoted from Red Bull following the Chinese Grand Prix this year.
Jessica Lawson
Jessica is the eldest sibling in the Lawson household, and there is very little public knowledge about her apart from this. She has recently had a child, named Poppy, according to her Instagram profile.
Holly Lawson
Holly Lawson is another one of Liam’s sisters, who also resides in New Zealand. She has recently achieved a bachelor’s degree in Nursing from the Auckland University of Technology, according to her Instagram.

Liam Lawson revealed how his sisters had to give up their dancing careers for him
Speaking in 2024, Liam Lawson shared that two of his sisters had to give up their dreams of becoming professional dancers because of him. He revealed how they could not compete in tournaments because of the Kiwi driver’s go-karting career.
Speaking on the Red Bull documentary about his journey, Lawson shared the emotional sacrifices that his siblings made so that he could succeed in his dream of becoming an F1 driver.
Two of my sisters were national-level Irish dancers, but they couldn’t do it,” said Lawson. “They had to stop. They couldn’t compete and go overseas anymore because of my go-kart racing. I absolutely love my family.”
In 2025, Liam Lawson started his first full F1 season as Red Bull’s second driver, a designation he was only able to enjoy for two races before being demoted back to Racing Bulls after the Chinese Grand Prix. The 23-year-old is now partnering Isack Hadjar at Red Bull’s sister team.
