Perez now trails 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen by 53 points in the drivers’ championship heading into this weekend’s Canadian Grand Pr𒅌ix.

The Mexican has struggled in the last two events, crash🀅ing out in qualifying in Monaco.

In Spa✃in, he was knocked out in Q2 as he strugg🍸led with the damp conditions before recovering to finish fourth.

Perez was asked about Horner’s comments ⛄on Thursday in𓃲 the FIA press conference.

“No I don’t think so,” he said when asked if the pressure was off now. “We always have to d🤪eliver to our maximum. We just have to make sure we deliver. 

“We have a great car and we should be having a lot of podiu⛄ms, wins and so on from now until the end of the year.

“We can see that the competition is getting cꦦloser and closer all the time but we will try our best.”

Despite Perez’s poor run of form recently, it was a st🐼rong start to the year, winning two of the opening three races.

“I want to start, go again basically. Monaco was all down to me - I had a really bad mistake,” he added. “Then in Barcelona, the qualifying again was tricky with the damp conditions.

“It was difficult in Barcelona. It’s the only time that I have diff𒀰iculties with the car. I struggled in the weekend so it was tric📖ky in Barcelona. 

“Other than that, in Monaco we had the pace to really have a very good weekend. 🗹I did a mistake. I was caught out by the tailwind, by the car ahead and so on. No I think it’s th🅠e first time we had difficulties was in Barcelona.”
