During the interview, Sergio Perez also reflected on his own campaign. The season culminated when Perez gave hope of winning the Monaco Grand Prix and becoming a world champion contender until his team-mate Max Verstappen was in the lead.

“For me, winning in Monaco was very special. Winning in Monaco is pure sporting history and a very special moment in my career,” said Sergio Pérez. .

“We were very competitive, especially at the beginning of the season, but there was a period when we lost a few races in the championship fight.

“The important thing is to be able to be consistent throughout the year to be in contention for the championship, so I think we’ve learned a lot from those moments that will make us stronger going forward.”

“At the end of the day, both drivers need to deliver consistent results throughout the season to win the Constructors’ Championship, so it’s been a very special year for the whole team. It’s been great.”
