Formula E’s co-founder Alberto Longo has revealed that he’s in constant discussions with Red Bull’s Sergio Pérez, who he wants
Pérez’s contract with Red Bull expires in 2024, and it seems unlikely that they will offer him a new deal. There is potential interest in him from other teams, but Alejandro Agag, the co-founder of Formula E, wants Pérez in the all-electric series. This weekend’s Mexico City E-Prix features several former F1 drivers, and with many drivers in Formula E without contracts for the next season, a busy silly season is expected. If Pérez decided to switch to Formula E, it would be a significant signing for the series, especially considering his popularity in Mexico. Racing in Formula E would give him more time with his family, as the season concludes in July, unlike F1’s 24-race calendar. Ultimately, whether Pérez joins Formula E remains to be seen, but Agag is certainly keen on the idea.
