Sergio Pérez, from the Red Bull Racing team, wants to put what happened behind him in Montmeló, Barcelonawhere he did not finish in fifth position, and focus on the Austrian Grand Prix.
The Mexican is in fifth place in the Formula One World Championship, after having recurring problems with his car, as well as a crash in Monaco.
However, ‘Checo’ acknowledged that we learn from all mistakes and in view of the Austrian GP he assured:
“My weekend in Spain was difficult, but it was a weekend from which we learned. I had problems with the balance of the car all weekend. “We were not able to have a consistent set-up or put it in a window for qualifying or to complete the race we wanted, and the penalty (of three places) on the grid also hurt us.”
Pérez and Max Verstappen will race at home this Saturday, since the Red Bull Ring, located in Styria, Austria, is property of their team. Last year the Dutchman took the win; while the Mexican was third.
Regarding the adjustments that the cars require, ‘Czech’ He confessed that although “we know in which areas we have to improve” the responsibility of “getting the most out of the car” is his and he needs to “achieve the maximum possible” in the only free practice that there will be, because the race has a sprint.
The last time Pérez and Verstappen stood on the podium together this season was the Chinese Grand Prix, held in April.
