When everything seemed to be going well, as the market didn't offer many alternatives, the news you don't expect arrives. As told by Roberto Chincero on Motorsport.com Italia, never like now Sergio Perez's future at Red Bull is truly at risk.
The beginning of the debacle
In Formula 1, as always, the results speak for themselves. Based on these, in fact, the teams carry out various analyzes on the possible reconfirmations of the drivers. Applying this discussion at Red Bull, in particular on Sergio's season Perez, the situation is not the simplest. Following a great start, the Miami GP was the watershed moment of the season. Since that weekend, in which Perez who started from pole was defeated by his teammate Verstappen (who started ninth), the Mexican gave rise to its long debacle.
And Ricciardo observes…
During the season, Perez's future at Red Bull has never been a certainty, On the contrary. In Milton Keynes they looked around several times, without however finding a valid alternative. The hypothesis Ricciardo, in reality, was very concrete in the minds of the Red Bull managers, but the injury suffered during free practice for the Dutch GP did not allow us to understand how fit the Australian really was. Despite everything, however, Perez's latest results have strongly reopened the possibility of a possible return of Ricciardo to Red Bull. Should the Mexican fail to convince in these last five races of the season, Ricciardo he would be ready to take over starting next season.
Perez is risking his future at Red Bull: it all depends on him
If the situation were to evolve towards this scenario, which until a few weeks ago seemed unthinkable, the way would be paved for a sensational Lawson's return (impeccable replacement for Ricciardo) in Alpha Tauri, alongside Yuki tsunoda. Of course, once again, everything depends on Perez who this time really has his future in Red Bull in his hands: five races you can't miss. We will have to push and give our best. Now or never.
