Red Bull criticised for axing Sergio Perez as second driver troubles persist in 2025
“Was it a mistake letting Pe🔴rez go? I🔯t looks like it.”

F1 steward Derek Warwick believes Red Bull’s second driver problem shows it was a mistake in axing Sergio Perez𒅌.
Perez was dr꧂opped🍌 by Red Bull at the end of the 2024 F1 season following a difficult campaign.

However, with Lawson languishing well behind168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Max Verstappen, Red Bul♊l decided to replace the Kiwi after just two race💯s.
While Yuki Tsunoda has proven to be an upgrade on L🦋awson, he’s struggled to adapt to the RB21.
Tsunoda’s best grand prix finish since joining Red Bull is ninth in Bahrain, while Ve🌞rstappen has won two races since the Japanese driver’s promotion.
Speaking to , Warwic🔯k explained why Lawson and Tsunoda’s poor performances show that Perez was doing a better job “than we gave him credit for”.
“I thinಞk Red Bull needs to try and find a way of making that second car fast, because quite clearly driving the same car as Max does not work,” Warwick said.
“They put every driver through there. We aℱᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚll know that Yuki’s quick, he’s had a disaster.
“It almost shows that Perez was doing a better job than we gave him credit for. I think they need to say,ꦓ I think they need to come out now and say, Yuki’s in it for the season.
“You don’t keep on saying we’re looking at other drivers and al🌺l that sort of stuff, because all that does is put pressuℱre on their driver.
“And instead of driving with soft hands and a soft steering wheel, he ends up trying too hard, braking too late. I think they need to give that s🌄econd driver, whoever it is, confidence that he’s in for the season.
“No question, I don’t care if he🍃 crashes every race, I don’t care if he’s lost every race, he’s in for the season.
“Was it a ꧅mistake letting P𒆙erez go? It looks like it.”
Will 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez return to the grid in 2026?
Perez has reportedly not given up on his F1 career despite sp♊ending this season on the sidelines.
The 35-year-old has been heavily🎐 linked with a return to the grid with Cadilla🐻c in 2026.
Cadillac will become F1’s 11th team next year - but the American outfit have yet to announce which drivers will drive📖 their first car.
Perez is th🦩ought to be the favourite for one of the seats.
His wealth of experience and significant financial backing make🔥 him an attractiv𝓡e option.
Perez’s reputation has only improved since his exit from F1, particularly given ꦕRed Bull’s second driver troubles.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mick Schumacher have also been linked.
