The end of the relationship between “Checo” Pérez And Red Bull It could be closer than ever. In recent weeks, during the break Formula 1various information has been published which highlights this.
Option rejected Daniel Ricciardowhich from this weekend will be replaced by Liam Lawson in RB, Helmut Marko He highlighted what is the “ideal” scenario the team envisions for next season.
And that’s without counting on “Checo” and keeping Max Verstappen “with someone from our junior programme”.
The two options for this junior program would be Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawsoneven if the New Zealander could have won the match against the Japanese.
Nothing is confirmed, but the Pukekohe High Schoolthe institute where Lawson attended high school, announced on its social media that the young pilot had completed “his childhood dream of becoming a full-time Red Bull driver.”
This may be an error and refer to Visa Cash RB appthe Milton Keynes branch where Lawson will finish this season, or not…
The reality is that Pérez himself assured in an interview with ‘DAZN’ that his retirement “it’s getting closer”: “I don’t see myself racing here at Fernando’s age, I admire him a lot.”
He also highlights the difficulties he encountered this year: “It was complicated, very hard. I couldn’t say anything because Verstappen was winning. I thought it wasn’t as good as before“.
Will Lawson replace him at Red Bull and will “Checo” move to RB? Will Tsunoda finally be Verstappen’s partner? Will Horner and Marko give the Aztec one last chance? Time will tell, but it seems Pérez is more on the outside than in of Milton Keynes.
