The Mexican home racer Red Bull he's having an excellent season, so much so that he's second in the league, sandwich between Max Verstappen e Charles Leclerc. Perez's role in Red Bull is clear but he hopes to be able to play all the cards just like his teammate does. The contract until 2024 it puts him in a fairly comfortable condition, even if Horner reiterated that he has no problem kicking him out for a misstep. Silverstone marks the beginning of a challenging marathon of 4 races in 5 weekends which will culminate on July 31st in Hungary with the last appointment before the summer break. The "home" weekend for Red Bull, which is based in Milton Keynes, must necessarily end with a success in order not to allow the Ferrari to shorten the gap. But there is one thing that worries the Mexican.
Unhappy Silverstone
During the press conference preceding the weekend at Silverstone Sergio Perez, answers a question that reopens wounds. At Silverstone the Mexican never shone, Perez also comes from a difficult weekend in Canada and seek redemption. “I absolutely need a good result here, also because the last few races here have not been positive, e I hope I can get on the podium Perez commented.
Watch the weather
One of the conditions that contributed to the disaster in Montreal was the unpredictability of the weather report. Right in qualifying, Sergio Perez blocked his RB18 under the downpour, affecting Sunday's race as well. Even at Silverstone the weather conditions are uncertain and we could see a scenario similar to that of Canada or even with wet qualifying and race. Red Bull for Silverstone should lead updates, to perfect the car even on the flying lap. But the rain threatens to postpone everything.
“We should also be good in terms of speed, but without a doubt our rivals will be close and we should also manage the weather, which will play a particular role here”.
