Read our privacy policy Christian Horner has revealed what Sergio Perez’s next move will be after Red Bull confirmed his exit following a disastrous 2024 F1 season. It’s time for him to spend time with his family and reflect on what he wants to do for the future.” open image in gallery Sergio Perez found plenty of success at Red Bull but struggled in recent months Horner was inevitably asked whether he regretted the contract extension handed out over the summer that essentially marked the beginning of the veteran’s decline. “Every contract has performance clauses and criteria, it didn’t make any difference to this decision for Sergio to step away and take a sabbatical.” Horner did acknowledge that Red Bull probably should have won the constructors’ title given Verstappen’s dominance and that the gap between him and Perez proved crucial. “Unfortunately we had a 280-point deficit between our drivers, of course that became quite expensive in terms of the constructors’ championship.” open image in gallery Perez’s struggles meant Max Verstappen’s heroics were ultimately in vain in the constructors’ title race Attention will now turn to Perez’s replacement to partner Verstappen next season with the decision seemingly being a straight shootout between Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson – both of whom currently drive for Red Bull’s feeder team RB.
