Sergio Perez “too inconsistent” to beat Max Verstappen to F1 title - Felipe Massa
Perez sits one-point behind Verstappen in the drivers’ cꦚhampi🍸onship after winning last weekend’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
The⛄ Mexican has never led the world championship in his F1 career but was on course to do so in Jeddah had Verstꦦappen not taken the fastest lap on the final lap.
With Red Bull enjoying a significant advantage over the rest of the field in F1 2023, Perez is realistically Verstappen’s only challenger for the t𒆙itle this year.
However, Massa - who narrowly missed out on the 2008 title to Lewis Hamilton - believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc would be Red Bull’s “biggest c🐻hallenger” if Ferrari could give him a title-challenging level of car.
“Like Max and Lewis, Charles is an exceptional driver,” Massa told Bild.
“He is currently the big💝gest title challenger for Red Bull.
“Their second driver, Sergio Pérez, is too inconsistent. Just like 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz from Ferrari.”
Massa rates168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell highly, particularly as he managed to out-sc💖ore Hamilton in 2022.
“I trust him to do that,” he added. “One must not forget: Last year, in his first season at 𓄧Mercedes, he left Lewis behind in the world📖 championship.
“An incredible performance. Before that, only Nico Rosberg succeeded in this in Lewღis' entire career in 2🍃016 [Jenson Button as well in 2011]. George is a top driver.”
