2023 Mexican Grand Prix - Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Oct 27 - 29

[Hammerfist]

Red Bull gave Perez a multi-year contract, and the team has the right to demand that he puts in a performance, no different than any company that operates.
To be fair, Perez is treated a little better than Bottas, who only has a one-year term per contract.
I don't see why criticism of Perez is not allowed, how is that criticism any different from what happened with McLaren/Ricciardo, and Haas/Schumacherd internally. Just see how in the first place.

.
Rbr certainly has the right to criticize perez but it has to be done internally. Williams sure arent happy with Sargeant but publicly he gets a lot of support from james vowles. Thats just how it should be. The way marko talks about perez is just very poor form and it certainly doesn’t help checo at all. Hamilton is 100 percent right in what he said.

.
Could you maybe give me a few examples where Marko Perez has dealt a mental blow, as Lewis says.
In which Marko didn't support Perez?
I only know that one very unfortunate comment that the mentality of "South Americans" is different from Europeans.

Seriously? Hes been on record saying negative things for 2 years. Just off the top of my head hes the one that claimed that checos job is to support max and not challenge him. As an f1 driver this is not what you want to hear from one of your bosses.

[Hammerfist]

That whole interview was actually Marko trying to lessen the pressure on Perez. He did it unhandily.

Regardless of, the timing of Hamilton is 100% wrong. This can only lead to more undeserved negativity towards Max this weekend.

Sure it was… In an alternate reality that us. Smh…

[Zynerji]

Whatever. The only talk that matters in F1 is what is done on track.

Everything else is bloviated drama, and unworthy of the concern of others...

I wouldn't expect much from FP1. This circuit has massive track evolution because it's so dusty here.

Alpine and Haas have a lot of louvres

Looks like the most forward Louvres on the Alpine are about getting air in as much as anything.

They have to run a prototype C4 tyre this weekend so maybe more than normal according to broadcast

Verstappen already looks understeery in the esses. That left hander in the second bit in particular.

Lets see what he can do in the quali.

Setup seems good for the low speeds though, no?

Yes seems decent on new tires. I meant the right hander, T10 btw.

Struggling with T8 curbs also.

Yeah I'm not surprised that they suffer at T8 - would've highlighted ahead of weekend as a bad spot for them.

Max also ruined that set of tyres probably with lockup.

RB showing impressive efficiency in max DWF config, similar to Zandvoort; probably would have looked good on straights at COTA too but ran very high
