Christian Horner says the only positive to take from Sergio Perez's Japanese GP was 'avoiding' a grid penalty for Qatar.
Christian Horner finds one positive as Sergio Perez ‘gets in his own way’ in JapanRed Bull driver Sergio Perez looks reflective after the Austrian Grand Prix sprint race. Styria, July 2023.
While Max Verstappen put in yet another flawless display at the Suzuka circuit as the reigning World Champion claimed pole position with a 1:28.877, six-tenths up on his nearest rival, Perez qualified on the third row of the grid. Out came the Safety Car and adding insult to injury, he was slapped with a five-second penalty for overtaking on his way into the pits.
Perez, though, had yet to take his penalty for causing a collision forcing Red Bull to make running repairs over a 10-lap period before sending the driver back out to do a lap,“The only decent thing we managed to get out of today was not carrying a penalty through into the next race in Qatar,” said the Red Bull team boss.Sergio Perez holds up his hand for K-Mag crash
