Sergio Perez looked back at his first weekend with the team and broke it down into positives and negatives:
Speaking about the problems he’s facing, the Mexican said:
Race pace with the Red Bull is a positive: Sergio Perez
Sergio Perez was happy with his recovery to P5 after starting the race from the pit-lane. Speaking about his progress through the field and race pace, the Mexican said:
One of the biggest issues faced by Sergio Perez’s predecessors at Red Bull was qualifying form. The Mexican is not renowned for his single-lap pace, but at Red Bull, it is unacceptable to get knocked out in Q2. Speaking about his qualifying session, Sergio Perez said:
The Bahrain Grand Prix could have had a different outcome had Sergio Perez been in the mix early on. The Mexican started the race from the pit-lane, which allowed Mercedes to split the strategy on their cars, and eventually win the race with Hamilton.
At Imola, a track notorious for a lack of overtaking opportunities, Perez needs to be careful and maximize his opportunities in qualifying. Otherwise, Red Bull could face a similar 2-on-1 situation again, which will not help their chances of winning the race.
