The decision to retain Sergio Perez for the remaining 10 races of the season surprised many due to his recent struggles and low points scored. Perez’s poor form this season is the longest and most detrimental of his Red Bull career, affecting the team’s standings in the constructors’ championship. Despite initial doubts, Red Bull chose to keep Perez alongside Max Verstappen for the rest of the season, setting aside rumors of replacements like Liam Lawson or Daniel Ricciardo. Perez now has 10 races to salvage his career with Red Bull and in F1, as his performance has fallen short of expectations.
