Sergio Perez, the Mexican driver for Red Bull Formula One team, delivered his best Friday practice performance in recent months after a candid kitchen meeting with team principal Christian Horner.
Perez ranked fourth fastest in the second practice session of the Hungarian Grand Prix, despite using a car with fewer upgrades than his teammate, Max Verstappen, who finished second behind McLaren's Lando Norris. Perez's performance comes after scoring just 15 points in the last six races, raising questions about his future with the team.
Christian Horner revealed that their open conversation had a positive impact. Perez admitted to overthinking and decided to concentrate solely on his performance. The results were immediate—Perez expressed confidence in his car and the decisions made throughout the practice sessions.
