After the Grand Prix of Spain, Sergio Perez has grown behind Max Verstappen in the individual classification to 53 points. Red Bull Racing head Christian Horner believes that thanks to such a big gap with his partner, Sergio will stop putting himself under excessive pressure, and this will help him in the races.
Christian Horner: “As Max Verstappen’s partner you always have to give the best. Now in the championship there is no other driver like Max, and I believe no one can beat him behind the wheel of the same car.
Sergio is facing a rider at the peak of his form and it is very difficult for Perez to fight him. Psychologically it is very difficult for him to accept such a picture, but now his backlog in the individual ranking is quite large. Perhaps this will take some of the pressure and expectations he puts on himself off Sergio.
He needs to let go and just be a pilot.”
