Ah well, guess his time was up. Not a surprising move but I’m not a fan of how Red Bull has handled it.
Joe Saward mentions in his notebook this week that there’s a rumour that Perez will announce his retirement at Mexico in a few weeks, which will let him bow out the sport gracefully without getting sacked. RB need to evaluate Lawson as his replacement and they can’t really do that if he doesn’t have a drive.
