Perez reveals “key” Red Bull change that will allow him to challenge Verstappen
Verstappen secured his third consecutive F1 world title by finishing second in the sprint race, while Perez failed to finish due to contact with Esteban Ocon. Perez is now 184 points behind his teammate, having not finished ahead of Verstappen on track since the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Despite winning two of the first four races, Perez’s title challenge faded away. He believes that having a more consistent car throughout the season will be the key to a stronger campaign in 2024. Perez’s sprint race ended after a three-way incident with Ocon and Nico Hulkenberg, resulting in substantial damage to his car. He expressed frustration but acknowledged Verstappen’s superior performance and congratulated him and the team on their success.
