How Red Bull’s second F1 car stopped being a big liability

- čas přidán 20. 05. 2024
- Not long ago, Sergio Perez’s Red Bull future seemed doomed. He had little hope of a new deal to keep him at the team in 2025.
There were even rumours he might be replaced for this season despite being under contract.
But Perez hung on and has started the season well. Not ‘Max Verstappen well’, but he’s scored valuable points, finished on the podium in four out of five races - as well as taking third in the China sprint - and kept out of trouble.
So how has he turned it around and what does it mean for his chances of staying for 2025 (and beyond)?

In summary: car development is always an impossible compromise between driver comfort and engineering hypotheticals. A hypothetically faster car with a less comfortable driver is usually slower than a compromised car that a driver can push to its limits. Red Bull has found that compromise for Checo. And, while he'll never be able to touch Max on a consistent basis, he can now perform to the ceiling of his abilities and provide a more reliable P2/P3 for the team.
Makes a ton of sense and its also why Max is so much faster in the "same" car. Max can push it farther. I don't think anyone on the current grid is as sharp and confident as Max is right now. Could Red Bull extract more points out of driver #2 if they pick up Sainz or even Yuki as a long shot....maybe. But prolly not. Rico needs to go as he brings nothing to the table and is taking up a seat from Liam. Red Bull would be more comfortable with Liam doing a full season at RB before giving him a shot at Red Bull. Checo is the best option going forward no matter how you break it down
The car is still isn’t to his liking
Which points towards what has been said of VER, NOT that the car is built around him BUT, that he is better at understanding it and extracting the best out of it.
Similar to other hot shots of the past. Blink Blink HAM, VET.
And we know how it went for those two once they had to adapt to a new car...
@@gopr3117 But that doesnt make sense. The are overall is built in a way that trades risk for reward better. Last year Checo had issues when he ran out of skill. Taking risks and losing is what got him to fall off. Red Bull knows they can get away with certain risk because Max can handle it. But to devolp a car based on Max isn't what they are doing. If you put Max in a Merc or Ferrari he is going to show them that the snappy the car the faster he can drive it. Red Bull has a car that most likely most drivers can't drive FAST. The keyword here is FAST. Checo can wheel the Red Bull wheel. but pushing the car to the limit MAx does is why gets him into trouble.
@@coreytrevor3910 that stay true if Newey still in the team and Red Bull is still dominating. But since he will leave and the new regulations is around the corner, i think they will only sign Perez for 1 year to see what gonna happen. If their new car is no longer the best car in the grid, they might find the need to get a different driver. Perez driving style is not that compatible to that red bull's car.
Please let's have more sporting news like these, and less rumours. We like the sport, so F1 journalism shouldn't be the male version of gossip magazines.
Agree 💯
PLEASE SAY IT LOUDER!!
@@Amstro515Buttlicker!!! Our prices have never been lower!!!
This channel loves rumours 😂 they like to spread it
F1 unchained is a very good channel also, straightforward no drama no click bait check it out
Not long ago there were rumours of Daniel Riccardo in red bull and now he is currently third worse in driver comparison
In my opinion, Ricciardo was never a realistic option for the second seat. His McClaren days dropped his prospects to an all-time low, and his Alpha Tauri drive was going to require a superstar comeback to put him in the conversation realistically. The fact that Yuki *ever* looked better than him last season was enough for me to say that he probably wouldn't get the seat, and with how things are going this season, I still think the same.
Pérez improved, Ricciardo has stagnated. That's the difference to me
@@renatatostada3318 it's a shame, I really like to see Ricciardo succeed.
5th, he's worse than tsunoda and lawson
@@renatatostada3318 Ricciardo actually got even worse. But remember how important the politics and PR are. Just the fact that they brought back Ricciardo instead of letting a junior, is a sign that any excuse will be good enough to put him into RBR. He just needs to not completely botch it. It's enough to finish the season behind Tsunoda, just not too far behind. At this point it feels like it doesnt matter if Tsunoda is P7 every race while Ricciardo is P18, because suddenly Ricciardo will score a P12 and BAM! HE'S BACK!!!! HE NEVER LEFT!!!!
Not the case. It’s too early to assess Daniel. Now his chassis has been replaced we will have to wait and see how he performs relative to Yuki.
The Verstappen factor is so real at Red Bull. Not so much because they are designing around Verstappen, but because they can put any performance upgrades and Max can live with it. Perez chasing setup changes that make him more comfortable probably put the car out of that sweet spot and compounded his problems. Now that he is accepting he has to live with the car he has, he is doing much, much better. Props to Checo for being able to do what his predecessors couldn't, hopefully he keeps this up for the long term.
Fact still remains that Perez is the closest anyone has been to Max since Daniel and anyone expecting anything beyond coming second to Max in a RedBull is delusional.
Perez falls off when the Euro season starts and has since 2021.
That is true, but if he keeps being the Perez of last season that is not the case anymore. The only reason he was second last year is because that car was so damn good. And the 2nd best team cycled all year so nobody was his closest challenger all year.
I think the reality of becoming the 2nd driver hurts a driver's AGO to an extreme.
it's an acceptance of something drivers absolutely never want to admit.
AGO? You mean ego?
Does autocorrect not work on CZcams? I've had times where my phone won't auto correct on this app vs others, it does.
I like how Perez has set targets for his setup and overall season results. It's not like last year, where he said he would be fighting Verstappen for the championship. Where did that lead him to? Mistakes. This year, however, he's kept it more realistic and at point. He's going for targets which are possible for him. And that will justify his spot at red bull if he continues further.
In the age of social media plagued with nameless Twitter accounts with football player profile pictures trolling endlessly, you rarely see people giving credit to an otherwise easy target as a pilot struggling, I'm glad he's getting the recognition for his hard work this year since he has always been fast and reliable on sundays, just understandably outshined by a generational monster like verstappen that would put quite possibly anyone else on the grid on the same predicaments.
The Max comparison is what cratered him in the first place.
Everyone is so quick to attack Perez, but he is playing the #2 driver role well. Blocking the field and letting Max get out ahead whilst not being overtaken would be tough. Sure it's not the glory position, but vital to Max's success
In conclusion Checo started driving better.
He always collapses when the Euro season starts. Just watch
He accepted that Max's setup was the way to go and adapted his driving to the car instead of trying to invent the wheel
I think they have started to listen to him on set up more and he has done work off season to get on top of it.
Wrong, Perez uses the car given instead of trying to change it.
Impossible to just go out there with absolutely no input from the driver and just drive the car with no ability to how the set up would help him or hinder him.
@@Uranswer-yu5kp he (Checo) now starts with Max's base setup and tries to move the setup with small changes to make it easier for him. Not fighting a razor sharp front end, loose rear car but adapting his driving to what works best for this car. He can dull it down slightly to prevent driver errors or crashes but the car works when the setup is close to what Max uses and Perez changes his driving to be more like Max.
Perez is doing very well/whats expected but he also hasn’t had the Lance-esque rough patch that he inevitably has every year. Granted even when that happens if there’s enough good results I’m sure he’ll stick around for next season.
Don't worry,
Fans still won't give him credit and still will keep saying he should be replaced.
Does anyone know the name of the tune playing in the background? Lol thanks.
*Said it all along!* It's not that PER is at VER's level or that he can beat him.
PER is what RB had been looking for: "Someone with the means and ability to do a decent job."
In a car that truly suits VER but none other. KVY, RIC, GAS, ALB, came and went. SAI jumped ship before the challenge arrived...
*_But Checo has managed to keep some pace behind VER._* The best escort driver VER with his driving style and needs can have.
With Newey and Honda gone in 2026, the likelihoods are RB22 will be incredibly slow, nobody wants to be a Red Bull driver anymore, even Verstappen is looking at exit options using the Marko clause in his contract. So they might as well give Perez the long contract he wanted.
Finally.. FINALLY!!!! F1 channels are FINALLYYY!!!!!! talking about the technical side of Checo's struggles... How'd it take THIS LONG!?
None of this matters now that Newey is leaving
Hypothetically, if Perez or Max were unable to race this season for one race, who gets the drive? One of the VCARB drivers or Lawson, as the reserve driver? Not knowing the answer to that doesn't help. You'd like to think that one would be a certainty but I think Yuki is at the bottom of that list and it could be either Danny or Liam... you just don't know.
Too early in the season to start singing his praises...lets wait til at least mid-season to see if this form is maintained
Daniel Ricciardo as a threat? He's another one living off his legacy, and the Chinese GP was Tsuki Yonoda's first time racing there. Give it to the summer break for some accuracy with the season settling, then we can see what mess the red bull company has to deal with
Is there a good channel like this that focuses on the WEC?
This is far from a good page
Plus ca change! Go back and read interviews with Gerhard Berger on his time at McLaren and you'll get almost the same story. He went into the team having been lead driver at Bennetton, and just couldn't get his head around Senna being so much faster. Only when he came to terms with the difference did he truly settle down and start performing at his best.
Berger was also at Ferrari 1987-1989 before joining McLaren, and was very very fast (at least up until his fiery Imola 1989 crash at Tamburello). But yeah, Senna was on an entirely different level than Berger.
big liability? that's a bit of a stretch given he came 2nd in last wdc... but ok, you need people to click
They need clicks so that is why they constantly bash Checo
Coming 2nd is pretty shameful considering his points tally was less than the difference between Max and his points. In the same machine. Checo is a liability- the day Ferrari or someone else picks up their pace, he’ll sink RB faster than Mexicans crossing over on illegal boats. We’re already seeing it this season.
@@capricornus993this
@@capricornus993 ok, i can agree he is a liability... but i wasn't and still am not convinced about considering him a big liability
How to tell someone only looks at the end results and doesn't watch the actual racing. Perez was one of the worst drivers on the grid in comparison to their teammate after the summer break last year.
Well there is also the threat Horner was making with bringing in Daniel R, magically Checo started picking things up after that.
Adrian Newey??? 😢
Perez: I drive (2011)
Checo making sure HE'S the designated Hispanic driver in Red Bull 💀
Checo will always be ready when Verstappen fails, not everyone can withstand such pressure.
Ask Jos what Checo is doing differently this year? 🤔
Yuki needs to get that seat.
“There were rumors…” Translation: We are not real journalists and we have no sources. We just make up stuff, talk about it amongst ourselves, and call it a rumour.
Journalistic integrity doesn’t exist in F1, particularly among the Brits.
British media like to attack Red Bull from a lot of side.. first RB, next Horner, then Jos, then Marko, then Max, then Adrian Newey, now Perez.. they cannot stand how dominant Red Bull😂
@@swl0323its very ironic given its a britished based team, however theyve havent had a britsh driver after coulthard so im not suprised if the team has a british driver they stroke them off relentlesly.
And you know what makes it worse? Discussing rumours is totally fine, but not the way many F1 journalists/creators do it where it is discussed as credible or even fact instead of "Hey there is this interesting story so lets talk about what if for a bit".
It is a little pathetic how many times rumours are spoken about as fact or credible by what should be reliable F1 journalists.
Now we need Horner to convince Adrian not to leave
Perez is criminally underrated he is the best teammate that Verstappen had in last 5-6 years and people are talking about Daniel like checo doesn't exist
It’s absolutely pathetic and sources like this know it
Well Daniel was the only teammate that Verstappen had that actually could beat him. So to say Perez is the best teammate he has had isn't quite correct, unless you're saying it's the best teammate for Verstappen because he's consistent but not a threat.
Criminally underrated? He's a solid upper midfield driver. A top driver would be really pushing Max every race at least. Having said that, he's the perfect number 2 driver as he's no direct threat to Max, is bringing home the points and doesn't cause many issues. RB have Max and they don't need a super quick 2nd driver.
Max is twice the driver now compared to what Daniel faced back then, It's not even close. Sometimes I think if all the people who spent entire last year bashing checo and lobbying for Daniel to take second RB seat, how would they be able to handle the destruction of the honeybadger if it indeed happens
Actually this year he looks like it but he didn't before. The gap has been bigger than with some of the teammates Max had... But the cars of 2022, 2023 and 2024 are better lifting Checo in the results and standings and making it possible for Max to destroy all competition. Move both RedBull cars down 0,3 s and Checo would be in midfield a lot yet Max would still win.
this is such a The Race article, always putting Checo down, even though i am not a "checolover" i feel how this channel bashes on him constantly.
Bunch of clowns
You know its true when they say “Ricardo is less of a threat” like bro - Ricardo isn’t even relevant anymore 😂
Isnt this the case with every season???
Ive been saying this for years, about how the damn car is 180 degrees opposite his driving style. The fact he has done as well as he has is a testament to Checo's ability. The car must have felt like driving a freight train last season. Imagine being that uncomfortable at your job because some change was made that completely disrupts the flow of your work day. you try to adapt and work around it, try to find a happy medium that you can live with, but it is just not possible. It happens.
Why the fuck are these bots doing here youtube
If you don't report them, they will grow in numbers.
Maybe do your bit if you don't like them.
Takes a couple of seconds.
Hope Perez gets replaced by any driver who would challenge for a few race wins atleast once in a blue-moon.
Having Sainz or Seb would be really fun to see for different reasons but Perez is a good mid-field driver.
Whatever you are smoking I want some.
@@xelasc I’m not sure if DTS fans can handle it
The race just jinxed checo's season. Last years Miami Gp was the start of checo's downfall and i wonder if checo will keep up with his seasonally traditions
He put pressure on himself last year. This year, he knows being 2nd is enough
Checo's downfall ... Give the guy a break !
He was 2nd in the 2023 championship, 51 points ahead of the Silver Whiner and 79 ahead of Alonso in 4th
@@Wannes_ He was in in the RB19, only 2 wins worth of point ahead of Hamilton, that's worse than what Bottas did in 2020. Last year while true his best finish ever, is NOT anywhere near his best season
@@GameOver-nm2us In 2020 Albon in 7th scored half the points of Verstappen - and less than Perez in a Racing point (4th after Max)
In 2019 Albon scored only 1/3 of the points of Max in the same car.
Hard to compare different years with different cars and different number of races, but the basic fact remains: nobody but Max did better than Checo in 2023.
If he had that bad a season, it would have been easy to do better , right ?
Yet nobody did.
51 points ahead of Hamilton is not just 2 wins worth, it's 2 wins where Hamilton can't score a single point.
@Wannes_ Checo is the best only behind Verstappen? Buddy, Hamilton was in the W14, a winless car. He had no right to be anywhere near the top 10, yet he almost got 2nd in the championship. Matter of the fact is, Checo was top 5 worst drivers last year, and if you say otherwise, you are delusional. Hamilton didn't have a single race where he crossed the line and didn't score a point. He scored points all season par 2: Austin; because of dsq, and Qatar; because of dnf. Just because he came 2nd does NOT mean he did good, that is less than the bare minimum, and Max won constructors by himself. Put Hamilton, Alonso, Russel, Sainz, Leclerc, or even Piastri in Max's place and every one of them would've beat him, maybe not as comfortably as Max, but every single one of them would be champion.
This event/activity get sadder and sadder. I remember the frenzied competition that team mates used to engage in. Now people are happy to just stay in a seat, and literally humiliate themselves, as we witness the punishments for transgressing orders. What's the point of watching this lorry racing, low budget formula? The cutting edge? My arse!
Perez, Fisichella, Trulli, Webber, Hulk, Albon, Norris, and Gasly all have something in common. When they race for a midfield team that leaned their car development towards them, their performances were brilliant and sometimes punched well above the weight of their machinery.
However with two vastly different driving approaches in the same car, we have a Button-Hamilton situation at RBR where they HAVE TO choose to prioritise one driver over the other.
The most well balanced driver pairings to exist in modern F1 have always been able to cope with whatever the team decided was best: example of Lewis-Rosberg, Senna-Prost, Prost-Lauda, Mansell-Piquet, and currently Sainz-Leclerc.
Perez can’t cope with Verstappen’s setups as it costs him performance and so it seems that they’ll compromise to keep him a little happier but his happiness falls outside the optimal performance window of the car compared to Verstappen.
I was reading somewhere that Checo explained that he is now following Verstappens setup for every track this season and majority of his struggles last year were because of him trying to find a better setup than verstappen and which didnt work for him.
Is he back on track though?
I have always been a fan of Checo, but I must agree, he needs to focus on driving the car and not so much on the championship. If he is the right place at the right time, like Mansell, then you never know.
It was never the second car that was slower, but the 2nd driver...
Verstappen doesn’t need a wingman lol
The reality is that car 1 won the Chinese GP coasting by 13+ seconds. The performance gap between the Red Bull and the rest of the grid is once again huge. Max went a second quicker than everyone the lap after passing Lewis in the sprint - that is unmasked pace. The fact that Perez still can’t put that car 2nd tells you that the same shambles is likely coming when the performance gap becomes less astronomical as the Red Bull team shift focus to 2025.
It's 9nly the start of the season. Give him a chance he can still fuck it up
The car is so fast that he knows he can race at 95% and top 5, doesn't need to be on the edge because he can't catch Max. Got it
5 races in…. Let’s see if he keeps it up and not, like all previous years, takes a mental holiday break from may going forward.
I think you guys just jinxed it
I think it’s also important to note that he still had this same form in place this same time last year and after Miami he fell off. So we need to reevaluate at the summer break.
Original comment, why does the bot that copies the comment get the likes...
The proof of the pudding is in the eating
Lewis needs to take not and realise what the car can do and stop the wild setup changes
Lance in a RB vs Max in a Merc, who would win? 2024
It's certainly an interesting wrinkle of high performance. Checo is SO good. Has risen to the highest position in the racing world. Yet viewing the verstappen data, setup, speed.. he falls off hard and loses himself. Verstappen just seems to be moonwalking to impossible laptimes.
Is it a dominant car? Or is Max just a dominant driver?
RB is no doubt the fastest car on the grid, but without Max it would be at most 0.3s a lap faster.
Too early to say considering as of now, Perez had performed better last year and still ended up with less than half points than Max had
They would get rid of the second team car in F1 and allow more teams into the sport. The public is not interested in the current format and they should revert back to the old ways.
Bro can we stop the hate on Perez please. Ppl want him to beat Max so bad 😂. It's not like that. F1 is teams putting two cars to score the most points by the end of the season. Even with all his upsets last season. He mopped the floor with any other car outside of his partner. Why would Red Bull consider moving away from Perez. Just his defense alone for Max and how he makes cars behind Max burn tyre degradation is excellent. Perez is not going anywhere. It would be a dumb move for Red Bull to let him go 🤷🏾♂️
I want to see Sainz at Red Bull purely because it would be more entertaining and informative than the status quo.
I think that Sainz in Checos place would give the same results they have now.
@@jamesduncan578 it might! But at least there would be a question about what was going to happen. Who knows, maybe Sainz is more competitive with Max.
@@davidreynolds6718 Yes, Would be interesting.
Is Lance's contract "rolling"? I would say he's strolling in every sense of the word.
if he drives that RB at 9/10's
he has 2nd guaranteed...
when he tries to beat Max.... in a car Max likes more...
he looses out...
Totally agree, Perez is a let down
I love how Perez was looking on Verstapen level and said "might chalenge Max for the tittle"
Then suddenly his performance droped like a stone
And it's not just Max extracting everything from the car, those first races they both lead by the usual over 20 to 30 secs
It really seemed like Perez suddenly couldn't drive at all, super uncaracteristic
And everyone points at Miami as the breaking point but realisticaly he'd just think Max was on a roll and the strat was perfect for him, they still got the 1-2 and one single duel loss is not enough to sink you like that
This season he jut said "I won't challenge Max" and would you look at that he is performing incredibly well...
Sainz to Red bull would be amazing.
Let’s get Bottas as the 2nd driver. Let him enjoy a good car and he’ll have consistent podiums
if Newey leaves, RB does NOT have a long term future.
"He has to take what his given..." What a condescending take to what Checo has accomplished. Even dare to mentioned that Riccardo is "Not so much of a threat at the moment" He has never been in the past 3 years! What a joke of journalism
When will Max reach the day where he does not have a doormat teammate?
Sergio is staying
And Max going to Mercedes for € 160 million a year according to the tabloids.
When Perez retires the tell all interview will be magic.
I love pèrez but he is a liability. He's had one good season and if he has a bad one next year its possible redpoll could lose the constructors
I can't see Red Bull making a decision on the second seat until around September. It's also likely that unless it is someone like Sainz, it will only be a one-year deal. If staying in F1 is Perez's long-term goal, he should look for a seat at one of the lower teams.
Id rather see Saintz go to Red Bull than Perez stay.
He cant use the car to 100% if its made exactly for what Max wants, he can find some things manageable but on the full spectrum he will struggle with a car that’s absolutely not made for him. Thats why he struggles and whipes so much due to him pushing his limits with a car that’s not made for his limits
Checo steers a lot with the throttle, Max's is an extreme short corner driver rotating the car on braking. The more Perez drives it like Max the faster he will be. But he can't beat Max consistently as he dulls down the car slightly to make it liveable for him, yet Max actually likes it that nervous.
Congratulations on your excellent analysis of the increasing importance of Red Bull`s second race car driver, Checo Perez considering his better results and consistency this 2024. So it is more probable he will renew his contract maybe 2 more years.

I think the Red Bull got better which is covering up Perez's underwhelming performances.
Its Perez....what did you expect
Is this a filler video?
Pretty much
Half of the current grid could put up better results if they had that second seat in the RB20. There’s nothing special about Checo especially considering how WASHED he was last season. He sucks.

bro what?
The disrespect of checco last year and this year is mind blowing to me.
Perez is an average number two driver.
He will keep his seat if a better plan isn't required.
Respect is earned.
@@procatprocat9647 He's earned respect over the last 11 years. The only people who don't respect him are the ones who have no actual grasp of the sport. To say he's an average number 2 when the No.1 is Verstappen is extremely laughable even to begin with, and that's ignoring all the technical stuff... However WITH the technical stuff included in the debate, calling Checo an average no.2 is close to moronic.
It's literally took THIS LONG for news outlets like The Race have FINALLY started citing the technical side of things... If only people like Driver61 had the same reach...
The disrespect was earned.
Perez is extremely fortunate enough to drive a championship winning car but he doesn’t do anything with it.
Last season he wasn’t even consistently on the podiums, getting knocked out of qualifying frequently. Where’s the disrespect?
Honestly these number 2 drivers can underperform for years and it’s all fine whereas top drivers don’t even get that opportunity- Schumacher was forced to leave Ferrari for no genuine reason. Kimi was made to quit even though he won a WDC and was competitive in 2009. Vettel was let go despite only finishing 24points behind Leclerc despite the overwhelming reliability issues.
Meanwhile waste of space drivers like Massa, Perez, Bottas, Webber, Barrichello finish 100-200 points behind their teammate and they get to stay indefinitely

The 2nd Red Bull car will never be a liability if Alonso is in that seat.
There wouldn’t be a second car as such if Alonso went to partner Max… I get the impress Red Bull like having a distinct number 2 to Max
2nd car was a liability in 2007. Alonso’s not doing anything with Max as his teammate.
I bet even if Redbull offered him that seat along with $200m a year salary he would turn it down to not get exposed.
That’s why he walked away from the V8 Redbull, early V6 Mercedes contracts that he himself said was offered to him.

NO!!!
