The future of the Mexican driver in Formula 1 remains uncertain as Red Bull finalizes its lineup for 2025.
CRUCIAL DECISIONS IN MILTON KEYNES 🏎️🇲🇽
Mexican driver Sergio ‘Checo’ Pérez might be nearing the end of his time with the Red Bull Racing team. The Austrian team is reportedly considering announcing before Christmas 🎄 that young New Zealand driver Liam Lawson will replace him for the 2025 season.
Since the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Pérez has held meetings with Red Bull’s top management in Milton Keynes, where his future options are being discussed. While Pérez is under contract until 2025, his performance over recent months has raised doubts and sparked speculation.
A NEW DESTINATION FOR CHECO? 🌍🚗
Among the possibilities for Sergio Pérez’s future is a role as a Red Bull ambassador ✨, involving appearances at marketing and promotional events. However, he could also choose to cut ties with the team to explore opportunities in other motorsport categories.
One of the most notable options is joining General Motors’ Cadillac team, which plans to enter the Formula 1 grid in 2026 🚀. This move would allow Pérez to stay active in motorsport while potentially paving the way for a return to the top category in the future.
THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE: A TOUGH SEASON 📉🏆
Checo Pérez’s performance has been under scrutiny following a second half of the season with below-par results. Since the Dutch Grand Prix, Pérez has scored only 21 points, with his standout performance in Zandvoort earning him 8 points. However, his results in the Austin, Mexico City, and Las Vegas Grands Prix were disappointing.
On the other hand, while Red Bull remains silent, Pérez surprised team staff with a holiday gesture, gifting them bottles of his tequila as a Christmas present 🥂🎁.
A GRID IN CONSTANT FLUX 🔄⚙️
The 2025 season promises significant changes in Formula 1. Lewis Hamilton will take his iconic number 44 to Ferrari 🏎️🔴, Carlos Sainz will join Williams, and young prodigy Andrea Kimi Antonelli will take a seat at Mercedes-Benz.
Meanwhile, Red Bull seems to be betting on youth, with Liam Lawson ready to step into Pérez’s seat following an impressive stint with their junior team.
PÉREZ’S FUTURE IN LIMBO 🌟🤷
Although the official 2025 lineup still lists Sergio Pérez as a Red Bull driver, uncertainty surrounds his career. According to sources close to ESPN, ‘Checo’ Pérez is expected to leave Red Bull Racing.
Is this the farewell for Checo in Formula 1? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: his legacy in Mexican motorsport is already secured. 🇲🇽✨
