F1 steward Derek Warwick believes Red Bull’s second driver problem sꦗhows it was a mistake in axing Sergio Perez.

Pereﷺz was dropped by Red Bull at the end of the 2024 F1 season following a difficult campaign.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson replaced the ✅Mexican for the start of ⛄this season.

However, with Lawson languishing well behind168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Max Verstappen, Red Bull decided t🔯o replace the Kiwi after just two races.

While Yuki Tsunoda has proven to be an upgradeℱ on Lawson,ꦇ he’s struggled to adapt to the RB21.

Tsunoda’s best grand prix finish since joining Red Bull is ninth in Bahrain, while Verstappen has won two race💟s since the Japanese driver’s promotion.

Speaking to , Warwick explained 🦄𒀰why Lawson and Tsunoda’s poor performances show that Perez was doing a better job “than we gave him credit for”.

“I th♌ink Red Bull need💞s to try and find a way of making that second car fast, because quite clearly driving the same car as Max does not work,” Warwick said.

“The𓆏y put every🦂 driver through there. We all know that Yuki’s quick, he’s had a disaster. 

“It almost shows that Perez was doing a better job than we gave him credit for. I think𓆏 they need to say, I thiꦏnk they need to come out now and say, Yuki’s in it for the season.

“You don’t kee𓂃p on saying we’re looking at other drivers and all that sort of stuff, because all that does is put pressure 🀅on their driver.

“And instead of driving with sof🌼t hands and a soft steering wheel, he ends up trying too hard, braking too late. I think they need to give that second driver, whoever it is, confidence that he’s in for the season.

“No question, I don’t care if he crasꦜhes every race, I don’t care if he’s lost every race, he’s in for the season.

“Was it a mistake ಞletting Perez go? It looks like it.”

Will 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez return to the grid in 2026?

Perez has reportedly no𝔍t given up on his F1 career despite spending this season on the sidelines.

The 35-year-old has been he🥂avily linked with a return to the grid with Cadillac in 2026.

🍸Cadillac will become F1’s 11th team next year - but the American outfit have yet to announce which drivers will drive their first car.

Perez is thou𝓀ght to be the favourite for one of the seats.

His wealth of exp൲erience and significant financial backing make him an attractive option.

Perez’s reputation has only improved since his exit from F1, par💞ticularly given Red Bull’s second driver troubles.
