Red Bull Racing of the Formula 1who with attitudes and practices have shown the door of exit for the Mexican in the season 2024 and here are 5 conditions that would cause the rupture.
The best years of Sergio 'Czech' Perez inside the big tent they have undoubtedly been behind the wheel of the car of Red Bull Racingso these 5 conditions that would cause the exit of the Mexican pilot, have been compelling reasons that have worn out the relationship. It is even known that Checo has had friction with Max Verstappen, current world champion of the Formula 1 and teammate of the one born in Guadalajara, Jalisco.
Greater prominence in F1
The first of the conditions that Sergio 'Czech' Perez would not have been fulfilled, is the protagonism that demanded from Red Bull Racing in the drivers' championship Formula 1. This after the great performance that the Mexican had during the previous year's season, in which he won several races that were fundamental for the Austrian team to achieve the double crown of the big top.
In the current season, the Mexican driver's demands were not met, he even had a very poor start compared to the previous year, so this would be the main one of the conditions that would cause the exit of Pérez for the next 2024. Given this departure, Max Verstappen would continue as the team's main driver as has been the case for two years.
Frictions with Max Verstappen
Another of the conditions that would cause the exit of Sergio 'Czech' Perez for 2024, is his sporting rivalry with Max Verstappen. The Dutch driver is the current champion of the Formula 1 and it is one of the bastions of motorsports but, with a very marked unsportsmanlike attitude. This situation has caused friction with Checo, who has even seen his integrity at risk due to Max's outbursts of anger on the track, as happened at the 2022 Mexican Grand Prix, as the Mexican driver confessed.
Obviously I'm disappointed, especially after everything I've done. But I'm sure we're all adults and we'll move forward as a team. I've done a lot for him in the past, there's no secret about that. But as I say, it's good to keep this discussion internal, and move forward as a team.
Win the Mexican GP
The posture of Red Bull Racing She has been clear about who is driver 1 and 2, so she has sometimes thrown Checo's races overboard to let Max win. This has provoked the fury of Sergio 'Czech' Perez, who has always been in good disposition for the team. Although his exit of the Austrian team seems imminent, there is one last thing they can do for him before 2024.
One of the conditions that would prevent the departure of Sergio 'Checo' Pérez of Red Bull Racing is that the team plans an excellent race and allows it to win the 2023 Mexican Grand Prix. This race would mean the icing on the cake for the Mexican driver's career with the Formula 1 champion team, we will see if this happens or if the driver and his fans we will be left with the desire.
Greater cooperation from Red Bull Racing
Although there is a possibility that Sergio 'Czech' Perez keep the seat of the car Red Bull Racing for the season 2024there are weight conditions that would cause the total break, then, there are certain comments that the team's managers have made towards the Mexican driver when he makes mistakes in the races. This situation is not replicated with Max Verstappen, which has provoked Checo's anger.
Prior to the Arabian Grand Prix, Helmut Marko, advisor to Red Bull Racing He assured that his team does not have the best engine or the fastest car, in general. This caused some destabilization in the Mexican driver's career, who was unable to complete it satisfactorily and lost fundamental points in the race. Formula 1.
A better car
Sergio 'Czech' Perez He is known for getting the most out of all the cars he drives, so when he makes demands they are punctual and help the best development of the races. It seems that this feature has been a nuisance for the mechanics of Red Bull Racingwho have not attended to Checo's wishes, which would cause his exit of the team for this 2024. Although the Mexican driver is in third place, a rebound that changes the situation seems difficult.
There is still no formal proposal for Sergio 'Czech' Perez looking ahead to the season 2024 of the Formula 1 But, once your relationship with Red Bull Racinghe will be able to sit down to negotiate a new contract with some other team that seeks his services, among which Honda, Mercedes and Aston Martin are already listed, as the main alternatives that the Mexican would have.
