Who are the drivers most likely to replace Sergio Perez once his Red Bull F1 contract comes to an end?
Sergio Perez’s contract with Red Bull comes to an end at the conclusion of the 2024 F1 season. Who are the drivers most likely to replace him?
Impressing so comprehensively that Nyck de Vries was fired before Ricciardo had even pulled back into the garage at the end of the day, the Australian’s F1 career was rekindled by being given De Vries’ car for the remainder of 2023. At this point, it’s not even too far-fetched to say that the second Red Bull seat is Ricciardo’s to lose – such is the esteem he’s held in. All he has to do is prove competitive and match or beat Yuki Tsunoda, and it’s surely only a matter of time until he’s back alongside Verstappen.
Experience has shown that Red Bull are willing to take huge gambles on drivers being able to cope with massive pressure. Pierre Gasly, Daniil Kvyat, and Alex Albon all couldn’t cope with the expectations on their shoulders as they stepped into the Red Bull, in the same way that Max Verstappen was able to with immediate effect.
Contracts can always be broken in F1, as has been evidenced on numerous occasions, but Norris’ arrival at Red Bull is likely to be further down the line than at the conclusion of Perez’s contract. For now, there is simply no real need to break open the piggy bank to make a Norris switch happen, not while more easily accessed talents are in the queue.
Added to that is that, while Tsunoda has had a decent season for AlphaTauri, Lawson came in and, despite his lack of experience, almost immediately proved a pace-match for Tsunoda.
