If the drivers' market, despite there being only one seat available in F1, is still heated, it is also thanks to Sergio Perez e Red Bull. The Mexican issue has been a hot topic for over a year given his performances. He has often seemed unsteady, but confidence in Milton Keynes does not seem to have changed.
Marca is sure: Perez will bring new sponsors to Red Bull in 2025
The permanence of a driver in a team is determined by many factors. Without a doubt, his speed on the track is the fundamental criterion. But the various teams that compete in all categories of motorsport are also companies. To survive, these need money, which is obtained through merchandise and, above all, the sponsor. In the homeland, Checo is nothing but a hero. Everything about the Mexican is selling like hotcakes in his hometown. And Perez also brings a lot of sponsorship to Red Bull. This would be the main reason why, according to the well-known Spanish newspaper Mark, Sergio will be a driver for the Austrian team also in 2025. As reported by the Hispanic newspaper, there would be many South American companies willing to sponsor the team based in Milton Keynes. The names have not yet been made public, but it seems that Christian horner has already given the go-ahead to create new clothing and merchandise for the new year.
Perez keeps his seat at Red Bull also for the simulator
The permanence of the #11 with Red Bull is not only due to its ability to bring economic income to the team. It is not denied that Helmut Marko would like a change between Perez and one between Liam Lawson. (given his recent performances since his return) and Yuki tsunoda. It is also to be taken into consideration Daniel Ricciardo, who has announced his retirement but would undoubtedly be ready to get back on the Austrian car. But what the simulator highlights is that Checo's performance are superior to those of the other 3 drivers mentioned. This not only shows that Sergio is maximising the results with his single-seater. The South American's performances further confirm how Max Verstappen's performances are out of the ordinary, like the last one victory in Brazil.
