Breaking:Sergio Perez Holds Talks Over F1 Return for Next Season
Mexican Formula 1 driver Sergio Perez has revealed that he has been in discussions with several teams about securing a spot on the grid for the upcoming season. Perez, who currently races for Red Bull Racing, faces uncertainty over his future, with his contract set to expire at the end of this season.
In an interview, Perez confirmed that he has had talks with multiple teams regarding his plans for the next season. “I have spoken to a few teams about what opportunities are available for next year. Right now, my focus remains on delivering strong performances, but of course, I have to consider my options,” said the 34-year-old driver.
Perez has been part of Red Bull Racing since 2021, playing a key role in supporting Max Verstappen’s title-winning campaigns. However, his inconsistent performances in the 2023 and 2024 seasons have led to speculation that Red Bull might look for a replacement. Team principal Christian Horner has not ruled out the possibility of retaining Perez but has also indicated that Red Bull is evaluating all its options.
If Perez does not retain his seat at Red Bull, he may explore opportunities with other teams on the grid. Several teams, including Haas, Williams, and Sauber (which will become Audi’s works team in 2026), could be potential destinations for the experienced driver. Some reports suggest that Perez could even consider a return to his former team, Racing Point (now Aston Martin), where he enjoyed success before joining Red Bull.
Perez’s experience and ability to deliver under pressure make him an attractive option for teams seeking an experienced driver. With over 250 Grand Prix starts and multiple race wins, he remains a strong contender for a seat in Formula 1 next year.
The driver market for 2025 is still evolving, with several seats potentially up for grabs. Other drivers, including Carlos Sainz and Daniel Ricciardo, are also in discussions about their futures, which could influence Perez’s next move.
For now, Perez remains focused on finishing the current season on a high note while evaluating his opportunities for the future. Fans will be keen to see where the Mexican driver lands as teams finalize their line
ups for 2025.
