So everyone said how bad Perez was at Spa, lets look at some other drivers.
Max started 11 finished 4th
Piastri started 5th finished 2nd
Norris started 4th finished 5th

So the guy that probably have the 3 fastest car now starts 11 and end up in 4th. But the great new hype starts at 4 with the fastest car and ends up 5th?
My writings are for people with high IQ, so you can just scroll past.Sorry but you make absolutely no sense as usual. What is the point of your post?

Would the contract reflect that in the prefix if there is no appendix?It seems that a requirement to get a Williams drive these days is to have no appendix.
Other drivers: *Noted*
Did he crash?And how did Perez do?
HUH? What is that, a new Chinese car?Fokon
His benchmark became Max Verstappen. Just like the other before him, he was not up for the task. His successor will be the same.perez used to be quite good. (or not as bad as he is now)
i wonder what happened
Nah, he's bad by any standard, not just against Max. I reckon he lost a bunch of confidence and maybe doesn't gel with the car too well.His benchmark became Max Verstappen. Just like the other before him, he was not up for the task. His successor will be the same.
Yes that's wat happens when you up against Max Verstappen. You loose your confidence.Nah, he's bad by any standard, not just against Max. I reckon he lost a bunch of confidence and maybe doesn't gel with the car too well.
Also he was named Mexican Minister of Defense but hasn't been receiving a salary from government so he is probably jaded now.
Spelling ability too, apparently.Yes that's wat happens when you up against Max Verstappen. You loose your confidence.
You loose your confidence.
Beyond his racing achievements, Pérez’s cultural pride and representation have made him a beloved figure among Latino fans worldwide. His popularity has driven growth in the Latino fan base, with merchandise sales skyrocketing by a remarkable 305% in 2022 compared with sales in the previous year.
There is no denying that the sport of Formula One in itself has experienced a significant fan increase, particularly in the United States. This 2023 season, Formula One is having three races scheduled in America, and statistics show that Hispanics hold the highest level of interest in the country.
It has to be money related at this point, as to why he is able to keep his seat. History has shown with Gasly and Albon, that Checo's noose should have tightened a long time ago.OMG, are people still wondering why Perez remains with Red Bull?
He prints money and to a lesser degree isn't a threat to Max.
Two of his personal sponsors appear prominently on the car - Telcel and Claro.
He drives huge merchandise sales in Mexico and Latin America as a whole. There are 3 US GPs, with possibly another on the way. The US is arguably F1's primary target market. The US has a significant Mexican and Latino diaspora, who also make up a huge portion of the surging US viewership. Perez moves merch and drives viewership across North, Central and Latin America. He is a human money printer.
Red Bull nor F1 want to lose that.
