Perez’s saving grace is that he is in the fast car and can come back through the pack to reclaim some points or a podium.
Luckily for RB Max is winning all championships on his own so whilst not great it’s not terrible.
If his race performances were off too he would have been gone before now. RB dropped Gasly and Albon for less however more was at stake then when they were not smashing everyone else.
People need to stop voting him driver of the day though.
Pumped for McLaren. Loved Zak’s reaction in the garage.
It is really best case scenario for Perez to have an off period. Max is winning everything and there is a large fight for second best so the rest of the available points are being spread around every race. As long as Checo has an occasional good race, there is absolutely no risk for the constructor’s for Red Bull.
This is starting to get embarrassing for Checo. I thought people were exaggerating how precarious his position was but if he keeps performing like this RB might actually be forced to take action.
Imagine if RB had an actual competitor, Checo couldn’t support Max at the front at all if he keeps going like this.
Insane how great Max has been running it’s really overshadowed how poorly Checo has been
Yuki to RB please
My hot take is that Yuki is pretty much set to take the second RB seat pending Perez’s overall performance. If Perez continues to be abysmal, I’m sure that RB will drop him using a performance clause in his contract.
Everyone likes to rag on Yuki but since Gasly has left, Yuki stepped out tremendously. Not to mention that he’s been dragging that shit box to mid-field a handful of times. Helmut Marko even commented on Yuki’s performance and Marko never compliments anyone unless you’re Max and Vettel.
De Vries is going to get dropped to make way for Liam Lawson.
RB/AT seats is going to make silly season fun.
I really don’t think Yuki would be an improvement. He’s been inconsistent and his highs haven’t exactly been amazing. They’d be better going for Riccardo or the Hulk or Sainz imo.
Yuki’s been driving a dead bird on wheels though, imo
My bet is on Hulkenberg.
As odd as it sounds, Sainz is too good. RBR doesn’t need another driver who can challenge for the win. That only creates friction. That means that Sainz is not a good option in my opinion.
Ricciardo is apparently too slow when driving the sim, much slower than Perez.
I think Hulk is decent enough, but also realistic enough not to start drama within the team.
Where was it said that Ricardo is slow on sim? Just never came across such info? (not doubting ur comment just want to see where to look for such info)

Amongst others.
Obviously no real “hard” data, but the rumours were certainly strong.
Thanks, that was a good read. Horner did seem to suggest Daniel was improving but who knows.
Perez was leading the pack on a damp track. It was a bad call to put him at the front. And the gap between him and tenth shows it.
Ricciardo must be grinning
When is Ricciardo not grinning? 😁
That lad deserves an emoji of his own!
Makes you wonder how fast the racing point actually was in 2020 lol
Petition to make Max drive a formula 2 car to keep races competitive.
We can leave Perez in the Red Bull, it’ll be fine.
Just make him swap with DEV
Love to see McLaren back at the front, very interesting to see so many teams getting competitive. Just ignore Max and it’s a bloody interesting season.
Norris: “Max ruins everything for everyone”
Ahahaha preach it
Max drinking his water during that section of the interview to stop from smiling that shit-eating grin of his 😂
McLaren wtf Zack is so fucking pumped, proud of that guy. What a performance from Norris and Piastri.
Haha, yeah, he’s really excited, understandably so.
He put a shit eating grin on my face watching him charge around the garage damn near punching everyone with those high fives!
I’m right there with you, I was grinning the whole time watching him. So happy to see those upgrades coming through for McLaren. Lando deserves a good car.
A very interesting quali, and hopefully an interesting race tomorrow as well.
Delighted by the surprise performance by the two McLarens, happy for Piastri especially. Up until this point I was feeling none of the rookies were making much of an impact. I don’t usually root for McLaren but I definitely will tomorrow.
Perez needs to get his shit together or it might be curtains for him…
McLaren back for good?
Albon was faster then Alonso all thou qualifying. Crazy.
Really impressed by Piastri, magnificent for a rookie
Would Yuki be better than Perez in a Red Bull?
Norris and Piastri going 2-3, just as we all expected.
Just as expected…
Perez, what the hell man
Lol 5 times in a row missing Q3
This time, I honestly can’t blame him. Being put completely at the front was the worst position to be in, and that is on the team.
The previous 4 races though, those are on him, and are embarrassing as fuck.

Don’t worry, they’ll both get screwed by Ferrari on race day. All in due time.
