Liam Lawson admits he was “really surprised” by criticism from Mexico’s motorsport authority after his near-miss with two marshals at the Mexico City Grand Prix.

Racing Bulls driver Lawson almost collided with the marshals, running across the circuit to pick up debris, in the early stages of the last F1 race. A shaken Lawson said over team radio he “could have killed them.”
