We want him to deliver. He wants to deliver. But you have to look at the bigger picture and at the end of the day we need two cars finishing as high as possible in the constructors’ championship and in the drivers’ championship.
So, inevitably, there will come a point where a decision has to be made.
Horner did not confirm if Perez will retain his seat for next season, stating that the team will evaluate all their options before making a decision.
It’s a results-based business and we’ll take the time to evaluate all the data, all the information, and then make the decision that we feel is the right one for the team moving forward.
As for Perez, he remains focused on improving his performance and helping Red Bull achieve their goals for the rest of the season.
I know I need to do better, and I will do everything in my power to turn things around and help the team in any way I can.
