Mexico F1 future doesn’t depend on "superhero" Perez’s Red Bull fate
Following a 12-year break, the Formula 1 series returned to Mexico City’s Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez after Perez joined the grid. Perez’s popularity soared as he became a regular contender for wins, garnering fervent support from the Mexican audience. However, Perez’s struggles alongside Max Verstappen have put him under pressure to secure his seat beyond his current contract, which ends in 2024. Despite the potential loss of Perez, the organisers of the Mexico GP believe that the race’s popularity does not solely depend on him and are working to create a compelling experience for all attendees. While losing Perez would be a blow, they are planning for the future and aim to extend the contract beyond its current term.
