Sergio Perez “too inconsistent” to beat Max Verstappen to F1 title - Felipe Massa
Perez sits one-point behind Verstappen ♐in the drivers’ chamওpionship after winning last weekend’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
The Mexican has ne🅠ver led the world championship in his F1 career but was on course to do so in Jeddah had Verstappen not taken the fastest lap on the final lap.
With Red Bull enjoying a significant advantage over the rest of the field in F1 2023, Perez is realistically Verstappen’s only challenger for the tit𒁃ꦏle this year.
However, Massa - who narrowly missed out on the 2008 title to Lewis Hamilton - believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc wo💧uld be Red Bull’s “biggest challenger” if Ferrari could giv♐e him a title-challenging level of car.
“Like Max and Lewis, Charles is an exceptional driver,” Massa told Bild.
“He is currently the bigg♔est title challenger for Red B🍒ull.
“Their second driver, Sergio Pérez, is too inconsistent. Just like 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz from Ferrari.”
Massa rates168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell highly, particularly💖 as he managed to out-score Hamilton in 2022.
“I trust him to do that,” he added. “One must not forget: Last year, in his first season at Me♑rcedes, he left Lewis behind in the world 🐟championship.
“An incredible performance. Before that, only Nico Rosberg succeeded in this💝 in Lewis' entire career in 2016 [Jenson Button as well in 20ꦜ11]. George is a top driver.”
