'You guys will beat him up enough, I'm sure, but we really want to see him achieve what we know he's capable of.'
Christian Horner will sit down with Sergio Perez after his wretched Qatar Grand Prix with the team boss admitting his driver’s latest slump is causing “frustration” at Red Bull.
And unless he finds his form, and soon given Formula 1 will next embark on a triple-header, Horner’s worried P2 could be on the line. “But we’ll support him as much as we can because there’s the triple-header coming up. There’s a huge amount of points with Sprint races as well.” “And that’s what we do. We all know what Checo is capable of, and we want to support him to get back into a position where even as near ago as Monza he was finishing in second place to Max.”With “traditionally” the arm around the shoulder has been “the best way of supporting” Perez, Horner admits Red Bull need the driver to perform especially as Red Bull’s rivals are expected to close the gap next season.
“You can see Mercedes have pair, McLaren, Ferrari have a pair that’s quite tight between the respective drivers. And I think we had that at the earlier point of the year. But as the season has gone on, it’s got to become more, more varied. And we just need to get Checo back to the best form that he’s capable of.”
“We can’t afford to have a big split because, as you would expect the grid continues to concertina next year we need both drivers delivering at the top of the game.”
