Helmut Marko’s Sergio Perez U-turn following Daniel Ricciardo meeting: ‘Nothing is 100% certain in F1’
Perez is under contract with Red Bull for the 2024 season and both team principal Christian Horner and Marko had previously insisted that the Mexican will be retained alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen next year.
But with Perez’s p▨erformances continuing to remain under intense scrutiny amid teammate Verstappen’s domination, Marko now says there is no guarantee that Perez will be driving for Red Bull next year.
“Nothing is 100💖 percent certain in Formula 1, it just doe🍸sn’t exist,” the Austrian told .
“There are always performance-rel🐬ated situations somewhere that need to be discussed. We’ll take a look and discuss how to proceed in Zandvoort, then we’ll know more.”
Marko revealed he also held a meeting with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo in Graz over the summer.
The Australian returned t▨o F1 as a mid-season replacement for the underperforming Nyck de Vries at AlphaTauri and has already made his desire to drive forꦦ Red Bull again clear.
Ricciardo’s shock comeback has increased the pressure on Perez, who is 125 po💟ints behind Verstappen in the championship.
“We saw eac🧔h other, that’⭕s clear when he comes to Graz,” Marko added.
“He has a very positiv📖e personality, a successful c꧑areer, and incredible experience. His momentum and vigour caused a real jolt at AlphaTauri. That was a real boost of motivation.”
