Perez wins pole in Miami, continues chasing Verstappen

The Hindu  

Sergio Perez will start from the pole at the Miami Grand Prix, where he has been given clearance to race for both the win and the championship. Perez trails Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen by just six points in the championship standings and team boss Christian Horner vowed in Miami to allow the drivers to race for the title. Verstappen, the two-time reigning F1 champion, and Perez each have two wins this year as Red Bull has swept all four races and finished 1-2 three times. “But, his challenge, and the challenge for both drivers is maintaining the consistency.” He also acknowledged that Red Bull will allow Perez to challenge the two-time champion. “I think so long as the drivers know that they’re both getting an equal chance and it’s ultimately down to what they do on the circuit, that’s where you want it to play out, not through reliability, for example, to play a key role in a championship fight between your two drivers within your own team.” Seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton failed to advance out of the second round and will start 13th on Sunday.
