F1 Grand Prix of Abu Dhabi - Final Practice - Source: Getty
Sergio Perez’s F1 future has been under speculation as he could leave the Red Bull seat after the 2024 Abu Dhabi GP. Tensions ran high during Qualifying and Checo slammed his race engineer Hugh Bird for not checking and reporting the track limits issue to the race stewards. But what exactly did Perez say and why did he say it?
Perez started the qualifying session on the front foot and put in an impressive banker lap in Q1. The lap was fast enough to sit out the remaining session. However, he was found guilty by the FIA for exceeding track limits and his lap time was deleted. The Mexican suggested his race engineer check with the stewards as he always had at least one wheel inside the track limits.
