Can Sergio Perez deliver on Mark Webber's suggestion and get his Red Bull career back on track?
Former Red Bull racer Mark Webber feels Sergio Perez was “heavily distracted” in Qatar, though one “half-decent race” could help him escape this negative spiral.
The Mexican racer has been incurring penalty after penalty in recent rounds, that including causing collisions with Alex Albon in Singapore and Kevin Magnussen in Japan, while he picked up three five-second penalties during the Qatar Grand Prix for track limits violations.
Webber, in response, claimed Perez was “heavily distracted” at the wheel of the RB19, and questions whether that is just down to destroyed confidence, or something else being at play in his mind.
Webber though does not believe Perez is necessarily finished yet. If he can stop the rot and deliver just one steady performance, Webber thinks that can be the springboard for Perez to return to his level of earlier in the season, where he claimed two wins in the opening four grands prix and generally was a lot closer to Verstappen.
