Sergio Perez is picking up steam heading into his home Grand Prix in Mexico this weekend. partycasino | JonathanBrazeau
Perez had a renaissance last season with Racing Point, scoring his first career victory at the Sahkir Grand Prix in Bahrain and finishing a career-best fourth overall in the drivers’ championship.
Perez followed up his Baku victory with another podium, finishing third at the French Grand Prix. After a mid-season blip , Perez got back on track and into the points at the Dutch Grand Prix and returned to the podium in Turkey. The checkered flag waves for Red Bull driver Sergio Perez of Mexico as he crosses the finish line to win the Formula One Grand Prix at the Baku Formula One city circuit in Baku, Azerbaijan, Sunday, June 6, 2021. Checo's maiden voyage with Red Bull hasn't exactly been smooth sailing. Perez started last from pit lane for the British Grand Prix and a late extra pit stop for soft tires to snatch the fastest lap from Hamilton cost him a chance at scoring points himself.
Even the Dutch Grand Prix was looking like another write-off by qualifying 16th and opting for a power unit change to once again drop to the back of the pack and start from pit lane. Checo managed to turn things around and pick off the opposition to salvage an eighth-place result ... and possibly also salvage his season.
