Perez led home Verstappen, who mounted a charging𓆏 recovery drive from 15th on the grid, for Red Bull’s second easy one-two finish of the 2023 season in Jeddah.
But Red Bull’s celebrations amid a dominant start to the campaign were overshadowed by a late battle for the fastest lap bonus point, which was ultimately claimed by Verstappen 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:despite being inst🧔ructed t🍷o slow his pace ♛as🦹 both Red Bulls reported reliability issues in the closing stages.
Verstappe🀅n subsequently leads the world championship by a point from Perez and former Toyota driver Glock reck🅠ons the needle between the pair will only intensify as the title race hots up.
“The fastes🦩t lap of Verstappen, which he grabbed in the last lap, will l🤪ead to internal discussions again,” Glock told Sky Germany.
"Sergio Perez will not get involved in an꧑y topic in which he will have to support Verstappen in the future.
“I'm sure of that, because the Mexican sees his chan🧔ce to fight for the title with Verstappen. This will lead to a fight between th🌼e two.
“We can be prepared for the fact that there will be friction. Red Bull is certainly already aware of this in thi﷽s regard.
“Perez has shown that he is strong and has a very good pace in the🐷 race.
“At the same time, Verstappen is one who can't say an🤡🗹ything and does what he thinks is right. The team can say what it wants.”
