P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Sergio Perez’s father has given a somewhat surprise description of his son’s relationship with Max Verstappen.
Red Bull teammates Verstappen and Perez have had a tense relationship, with past conflicts and Verstappen refusing to help Perez last year. Perez is under pressure to perform well at the F1 Mexico City Grand Prix to secure his Red Bull seat for 2024. Perez’s father believes that he will continue to drive alongside Verstappen for another ten years and has the potential to win a world championship. Perez starts fifth on the grid, but Daniel Ricciardo is right behind him, potentially vying for a seat in Red Bull in the future. Christian Horner denies that Perez’s position depends on his standing in the drivers’ standings, but a poor performance compared to Ricciardo could impact Perez’s future with the team.
