The Mexican’s victory in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix has moved him to within six points of world championship leaderReflecting on the Baku performance, and especially on the way that he controlled the pace at the front - like in Saudi Arabia - Perez has singled out work he did with his engineers over the winter in addressing tyre management problems as triggering a transformation in his fortunes.
While Perez has a reputation as being one of the best drivers at looking after tyres in the past, he says those skills were not easily transferrable to the Red Bull car concept. “I feel now that I'm much better at it. With the understanding of a Red Bull car, I feel much more like a Red Bull driver.”
