Christian Horner has praised 'great team player' Sergio Perez for how he goes about one of the toughest tasks in F1 - sharing the garage with the reigning World Champion. Via Formula_Nerds ✍️
Being teammates with Max Verstappen has never been an easy task, but Sergio Perez has managed quite well.After Daniel Ricciardo left Red Bull at the end of 2018, the team struggled to find an adequate replacement. They promoted Pierre Gasly from Toro Rosso but sent him back to the team in favour of Alex Albon halfway through the season.
“The key thing in the appointment of Checo was his experience and it had been unfair, perhaps, on the previous two guys to bring them in so soon,”“Checo with that experience, he’s been through some of the hard knocks with his career to that point and I think what he’s brought to us is he’s a very rounded guy, he’s a great team player.
So being his teammate is a big ask. No racing driver likes to play second fiddle, or accept almost constant defeat by a teammate in equal machinery. In that respect, it’s a tough ask for Perez. “But Checo is mature enough to be able to deal with that and handle that. And I think that he’s looking to continue to evolve and improve his own performance, so it’s good to see him looking competitive.
