Sergio Perez is 53 points behind Max Verstappen in the individual standings after seven stages of the season. Four-time world champion Alain Prost believes that the Mexican rider has almost no chance of winning the title this season.
Alain Prost: “The driver’s job is always to tip the balance in his favor, whether it’s the choice of car settings or the sympathy of the team. However, Perez failed to do this. He must make Max Verstappen doubt his own abilities and change Red Bull’s opinion of his partner.
As we know, Perez is trying to succeed in a mission that is almost impossible. First of all, he has to stop loudly expressing his wish to beat Max.
Sergio’s environment doesn’t help him either. A month ago I read that in an interview with reporters his father compared the fight with Max to my confrontation with Ayrton Senna. Such statements are meaningless and counterproductive.”
