Sergio Perez has in Austin repeated his mantra about being “100 per cent certain” that he will still be a Red Bull driver in

Sergio Perez has been warned he's not "doing himself any favours", especially as there's now a new contender for his Red Bull seat.

Liam Lawson is preparing for just his sixth Grand Prix start this weekend in Texas and his first of the 2024 campaign, but the young New Zealander is already being linked with a move to Red Bull. His focus, he insists, is elsewhere.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has admitted the team "needs answers" as speculations over Sergio Perez’s future continue to swirl.

Sergio Perez insists this year has been his most difficult in Formula 1. The Red Bull driver entered the season knowing Daniel Ricciardo was among the contenders to replace him. A series of early podiums established Perez but he began to struggle, and was unable to tame the RB20 which it later emerged was declining in competitiveness.

Red Bull boss Christian Horner admits his team “need answers” to their driver line-up dilemma as the pressure grows on Sergio Perez. Mexican driver Perez trails teammate and championship leader Max Verstappen by 187 points after 18 races this year and has not won a grand prix since April 2023.

Sergio Perez has revealed that he had ‘two opportunities’ from other teams on the grid earlier this season but opted to stay and fight for his Red Bull future. The Mexican is contracted through until the end of 2026 but could lose his seat in six races time.
