Sergio Perez is making headlines for all the wrong reasons at the AustrianGP 🇦🇹 SergioPerez F1 Formula1
Perez and Verstappen came close on several occasions to a major incident during the opening few corners, both forced to take avoiding actions as they battled for the sprint lead.
Red Bull’s motorsport advisor, Dr Helmut Marko, was not particularly impressed with Perez’s role in the embryonic stages of the sprint and, it appears, the fact that Red Bull were still able to secure a 1-2 was a saving grace for Perez receiving more criticism. “But what comes next, pushing someone else onto the grass, especially in wet conditions – it was not exactly good teamwork.
“But I’ll have to take a closer look and talk to Checo. I’ll listen to what his position is. But in the end everything worked out anyway because Max drove away in front.”F1 penalty points: Drivers avoid punishment despite Canada penalties aplentyUpon winning the sprint, Verstappen said on team radio that there would need to be talks between the two drivers and the team as their battle at the Red Bull Ring was “not okay” in his opinion.
