Sergio Perez is to finally be able to race Max Verstappen on an equal-footing from the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Sergio Perez is set to finally receive Red Bull’s floor upgrade in the Las Vegas Grand Prix, putting him on par with Max Verstappen for the first time. The performance of the RB20 hit a low point at the Italian GP, prompting Red Bull to commit to a new floor design split between Azerbaijan and the USA, initially only for Verstappen. This left Perez with the older spec that had troubled the team, but with three races left in the season, he is now confirmed to have the same specifications as his Dutch teammate who aims to clinch his fourth world title in Nevada. Perez expressed his confidence in the new floor spec, stating that it puts him in a position to compete at the top level this weekend in Las Vegas. He acknowledged the challenges faced throughout the season but emphasized his faith in the team’s decisions and data that led to his contract renewal. Despite the difficulties, Perez hopes to finish the remaining races strongly and end the season on a high note.
