      Not this season. Marko himself said nothing is 100% shure in F1 (as we all know) when asked about Perez driving for RB in 2024. They will not hesitate to pay him out and replace him. Perez is underperforming for a while now, that car is capable of podium finishes every single weekend.

        Everybody is underperforming, if Verstappen is the other driver. They have no huge talent, so there is no need to exchange Perez.

          No, it’s not about Verstappen. It’s what you can do with that Red Bull. Clearly Perez is not getting the ‘max’ out of it. It’s not only about the drivers championship but also the constructors.

          Don’t get me wrong, I have alot of sympathy for Perez and he deserves a seat in a top team. But giving the history of red bull and their drivers, nobody is safe unless your name is Verstappen.

          Yeah but they were happy when checo was thier solid second driver who was fine with being second. This season, for whatever reason, he had the burst of rebellious spirit earlier in the season. Might have caused a bit of bad blood there idk
