PADDOCK INSIDER: Mexico is a special weekend for Perez – but it's also important for his Red Bull future
"These two weekends [Austin and Mexico City] for me are the most important ones, they are where I have the most people coming to support me – they are the most special ones," says Sergio Perez when we catch up.
These two weekends are also important for Perez’s future in Formula 1. The Mexican has a contract that runs until the end of 2024, but he is under significant pressure to prove he deserves to stay on at Red Bull for 2025.
