THE RACE | The fight to take Sergio Perez's Red Bull F1 seat @WeAreTheRace | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
Another F1 weekend featuring another qualifying crash, and Sergio Perez has just one more race to convince Red Bull not to drop him mid-season ahead of critical talks in the F1 summer break.
Red Bull's points lead was slashed by McLaren at the Hungarian Grand Prix and its need to close out the constructors' championship in particular is why a drastic driver change is being so seriously considered for the rest of 2024.
Nothing is being decided before the August break so Perez does still have the Belgian GP to build on the shoots of recovery seen in Hungary, where he produced what Red Bull feels was his best race performance in three months to recover from 16th to seventh.
But the fact he needed to recover at all means his team bosses are still far from convinced he can be the reliable driver they need alongside Max Verstappen to win both championships this season. So who else is in contention?
00:00 Introduction
01:49 The safe pick
03:57 The wildcard
06:11 The 2025 outsider
08:02 Could Perez be kept on?
