Australian outlet MotorRacing 360 reported that the Kiwi had been approached by teams in Supercars to contest the forthcoming New Zealand-based rounds in Taupo and/or Christchurch.
This would have been possible due to F1âs enforced April break, but Lawson thinks entering Australasiaâs premier touring car series is something for later in his career.
The 24-year-old told media including Motorsport: âI landed in New Zealand, and my phone was blown up with, like, âoh Liam, you're racing Supercars next weekâ and I was like, âI didn't even know I was racing Supercars next weekâ.

âSo, I don't really know how everybody else seems to know that I'm racing a supercar next week. But yeah, it was a very cool idea.
âIt's obviously a series that I've grown up watching and I would love to do it at some point for sure. Obviously, when my life is not so focused on one thing, maybe, and I can actually put the time in to prepare for it would be cool. But yeah, obviously no real truth to that one.â
Supercars
It would add to the various other championships Lawson has entered, having finished runner-up in both DTM (2021) and Super Formula (2023), plus winning the 2019 New Zealand Grand Prix.
When asked further if heâd like to try more racing outside of F1, he replied: âDefinitely, I've done it in the past and loved it. I think always having that level of adaptability is good, I'm lucky that I've had the opportunity to do that since I was very young.
âSupercars, especially, is something I've grown up watching and I think the series is amazing. They do such a good job to keep the cars raw, they still have V8s naturally aspirated, they have sequential gearboxes which they're not going away from, they're not going towards paddle shifts and other things.
âThey're managing everything themselves and I think that's just such a cool thing and the racing has been really, really good as well. So I like the series a lot, it's something I would love to do. I've driven the car a couple of times and just had a blast.
âBut other series as well, I did DTM a few years ago and enjoyed it. Hated the way it ended,â referring to how he lost the title to Maximilian Gotz on the final day, âbut I enjoyed the season through the year and getting to work with a different team in a very, very different series.
â[A driver can] be a bit more aggressive, throw some dive bombs, slam some doors, stuff like that, something we can't do too much in Formula 1. So it was good fun, I'm always trying to do stuff like that even if it's in different sports, I'm riding a dirt bike a lot as well and enjoying it.â
