'It was like that with my brother, with Senna and also with Lewis Hamilton.'
Ex-F1 racer Ralf Schumacher says Max Verstappen, like Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna, “makes the difference” and so Sergio Perez must accept that Red Bull “sides” with Verstappen.
However, such hope faded from there, Verstappen having now won 15 grands prix this season as he secured a third World Championship crown at the Qatar Grand Prix.It is not only Perez’s title push which has crumbled though, his season overall having fallen into disarray as speculation swirls over his Red Bull future.
But, what Perez is experiencing now, according to Ralf, is the same as what the likes of Hamilton, Senna and his brother Michael Schumacher inflicted on their team-mates at the peak of their powers. “He drives the same car as Verstappen and can’t keep up with him. The race in Austin was not bad. But to celebrate a fifth place, which was Sergio’s before Hamilton’s disqualification , is simply too little for a Red Bull driver.”
