A good amount of Perez's points/wins came while he was in the RB, but not all. He did well at Racing Point/Force India.
It was a joke, of course skill wise I’d take Perez over all the others.

Checo has slid down to 5th in the points and Horner is helping him every step of the way to re-discover his early season form to haul himself back into contention.

So what's happening with SAI, he did find the pen to sign with Williams but it's apparently run out of ink, Spanish b@lls are on hold once more
Carlos snr says Audi Sauber from '26 and to sign for kick Sauber for next year to do so, as he does the Paris/Dakar in an Audi buggy.
C'mon Carlos jnr, only little girls to and fro like that.

Damn it's red flag. MAX has PU fault and stopped on track halfway through FP1 though it was probably with a well used engine and not his race one.

...It was a sensor issue that stopped MAX and not the engine mechanical that was quickly fixed and he tops the FP1.

Audi say they're on target with the '26 electric expresso machine and I think they want SAI badly, money? we know the score with the waiting and fishing.

Per doesnt get much credit, but him winning in the Force India car from 20th says plenty. He is an equal driver to Sai in a by and large way. Sai gets a lot of hype whereas Per has the hardest job in F1. Most of these guys would suffer the same way Per has driving next to Max. Let's not forget, Nor said he was too scared to sign with RB and be Max's teammate. I think there are only 2 or 3 guys who would possibly take that job and none of them would success overall.

40 minutes to Sprint quali but not before Race Director Wittich explains track limits on the RB ring.

Last year here this chap deleted 47 lap times with confusing track limits rulings causing MAX to speak out about the strange situation.

Max had to switch helmets due to the tearoffs blocking his view. It's 2024 and we're still using tearoffs like neanderthals.

The McLarens in Sector 2 are beasts.

No chance as he is staying with RBR until contract ends, he has a job to do racking up championships.

Merc actually improving helps their case. Jos not being able to keep out of his son's business does too. Ought to be interesting to see how it plays out.

Jos can say whatever he wants . But MAX has the final say .

MAX's last word was : I'll be part of the 2025 Red Bull Team ...

All the rest that you can read is : Clickbait (!)
