'That's a brutally hard question.'
Red Bull team boss Christian Horner assessed Martin Brundle’s question on whether he wished he had not yet re-signed Sergio Perez as “brutally hard”, as Daniel Ricciardo swap speculation swirls.has suffered an alarming slump in form over the last five rounds, which has included no higher than a P7 finish and a pair of DNFs, with Perez sat P5 in the Drivers’ standings and looking over his shoulder at the lurking Oscar Piastri and George Russell.
Horner was quizzed by Sky F1 on Perez’s form ahead of the British Grand Prix, Horner calling it a “brutally hard question” when ex-racer turned pundit Brundle asked if the Red Bull boss wished he had not handed out that new contract to Perez so soon?“But, of course, you know, at the point that you sign a driver, the contents of any agreement are not going to be disclosed to all of you lot.
“Obviously, Sergio has had a had a tough spell and his first five races were very competitive. The last five have been nowhere. “But what we’ve constantly seen with him is this resilience to be able to bounce back and we’re hoping to see that very soon.”Pointed out that this Perez slump mirrors his drop in form during 2023 after a strong start, Horner said Red Bull had hoped that giving Perez this new deal would have avoided a repeat.
