Red Bull’s advisor had indicated Sergio Perez would finally get a new floor on his Red Bull this weekend, unfortunately….
Sergio Perez’s hopes of being on equal footing with Max Verstappen this weekend were crushed once again due to ongoing issues with his Red Bull Racing car. The team’s advisor, Helmut Marko, initially hinted that Perez would receive a new floor on his car similar to Verstappen’s at the start of the triple-header in the United States. However, following Perez’s complaints about the car’s handling in Mexico City, Marko announced that Perez would be receiving a new chassis to address the issues he faced, particularly under braking. Perez, feeling the pressure, revealed that the promised upgrades will not be available until the next race in Las Vegas at the end of November. Despite the challenges, Perez remains hopeful and trusts that the team is doing their best amidst the setbacks they’ve encountered recently. He emphasized the need for better understanding and improvement in car performance, especially after facing disappointing results in previous races. Perez’s focus is now on regrouping as a team and striving to be competitive in the upcoming race.
