The reason Perez retired, returned and retired again in disastrous Japanese GP
Red Bull driver Sergio Perez had a disastrous race due to early contact with Lewis Hamilton and subsequent penalties. After a collision with Hamilton, Perez had to pit early to replace his damaged front wing. He was then given a five-second time penalty for a Safety Car infringement. While trying to recover, Perez collided with Kevin Magnussen, causing more damage to his car and resulting in a second pit stop for a nose change. Perez complained about his car feeling off and was eventually instructed to retire on Lap 15. Despite this, Red Bull sent him back out to serve his time penalty on Lap 40 to avoid it carrying over to the next race. However, Perez was told to retire again on Lap 43.
