Sergio Perez has called for the stewards to penalise drivers consistently, following Fernando Alonso and George Russell’s incident in Australia.
Sergio Perez has expressed his concern about the lack of consistency in steward decisions following incidents in the Australian Grand Prix involving Alonso and Russell, calling for more regularity in penalties. Alonso was penalized with three penalty points and a 20-second post-race penalty for driving dangerously and causing Russell to crash into the barrier after losing downforce. Perez believes that Alonso’s actions were excessive in this particular case and worries that similar incidents may occur without proper consequences in future races. Despite acknowledging Alonso’s typically fair racing style, Perez emphasized the importance of maintaining consistency in applying penalties to all drivers to ensure a level playing field. Perez also highlighted the trust he has in Alonso as a competitor, despite the incident in Australia, where the veteran driver arguably crossed the line with his defensive tactics. Perez stressed the need for consistent penalties for all drivers to avoid discrepancies and maintain fairness in Formula 1 racing.
