Red Bull F1 boss Christian Horner has shrugged off the significance of Liam Lawson’s upcoming test for the team amid speculation surrounding 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez’s future.

Over the British Grand Prix weekend, reports eme꧅rged suggesting that Perez could be replaced if he doesn’t enjoy a significant upturn in form.

The Mexican has scored just 15 points in the last six races, a worrying dip in form which could sᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚee him drop to eighth in the drivers’ championship given Mercedes’ resurgence.

Coincidentally, Red Bull junior Lawson will test the RB2🐷0 at Silverstone in a promotional event.

Speaking after the race on Sunday, Horner told media at Silverstone, where 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:wuqian0821.com are present in the paddock, that Lawson’s teꩲst had been planned a couple of months ago.

“The problem is if you read too much into these things, I’m actually doing a lap at Silverstone in the RB8 on Thursday as well🌃,” Horner said. “So you never know!

“No, in all seriousness, the 🎉Liam test, aero run, has been planned for a couple of months now.”

Peꦰrez endured another miserable race at the British GP as he was lapped 𝔉twice.

He was knocked out in Q1 after a spin at Copse before an early switch to the intermediates🍌 didn’t pay off.

“Of course, Checo, of course he's under pressure,” Horner added. “That's normal in ꧒Formula 1. And when you're underdelivering, that pressure only mounts. He’s aware of that, he knows that.

“This weekend, it just hasn’t, nothing has really gone his way. We took a gamble in the race. He started on the hard tire, he was making decent progress early on in the race. The rain started to arrive, he was P15 or 16 at the time, you 🌄roll the dice a little at that point as they did with Leclerc.

“He went onto the inter. If he’d have, if the rain had picked up, he’d have looked a hero. It didn’t. So you don’t. And then he had an extra stop and the tiꦺme loss of being on an inte𒐪r on a drying track was haemorrhaging a lot of time for him. So yeah. Obviously a lot to look at from over the weekend.”

Perez’s stuttering form does compromise🤪 Red Bull’s chances of winning the constructors’ championship this year.

While Red Bull are 71 points clea﷽r in the standings, McLaren are likely going to be their nearest challenger in the second half of the year due to the contrasting fortunes with Ferrari.

Horner conceded Perez’s form isn’t 'sustainable'.

“He knows it’s unsustainable to not b🌞e scoring points,” he added. “We have to be scoring p💎oints in that car, and he knows that.

“He knows his role and his target. Nobody is more eager than Checo to get💎 back and find his form again.”
