Sergio Perez knows what he wants to happen to Lewis Hamilton.
Sergio Perez has called on F1 stewards to hand Lewis Hamilton a grid penalty following their incident in Dutch Grand Prix qualifying. Perez was allegedly impeded by Hamilton in Q1 at Zandvoort as the Mercedes was on a slow lap with the Mexican on a flying effort. As Perez drifted to the left to open up the entry to Turn 10, he nearly ran into Hamilton, forcing him to abort and use a second set of fresh soft tyres. Hamilton would be knocked out in Q2, starting 12th, with Perez fifth as the Red Bull driver felt a three-place grid drop was all but necessary. “He has tried his best [to get out of the way] but unfortunately, we just ended up in the wrong [place] at the wrong time,” Perez told media including RacingNews365. “The stewards have been really strict this year, and I’ve got penalties for a lot worse than that, so I do expect him to get a penalty, unfortunately.” Perez also mentioned that there probably should be a little more margin given in such situations, acknowledging that it is what it is.
