Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko says168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Sergio Perez “completely collapsed” in the F1 Belgian Grand Prix.

Perez enjoyed his strongest qualifying since April’s Chinese Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps and lined up second on the grid for Sunday’s race with his teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen shuffled down to 11th due to an engine penalty.

The under-pressure Mexican could not capitalise on his front-row starting position and ultimately slipped to eighth and three places behind his recovering teammate by the end of the 44-lap race. Perez was promoted to seventh following 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell’s disqualification.

His performance did not impress Marko, who told Sky Germany: "Sergio had the opportunity to take a good r﷽esult from second place. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Especially in the last stint, ♛he completely collapsed, where he set 1m48s lap times.

"What looked so positive in qualifyꦡing unfortunately didn't ⛦materialise in the race.”

Red Bull are set to hold a meeting on Monday in which Perez’s fꦺuture will be on the agenda.

"For u𓆉s, the situation is such that we will also go through the overall situation for 2025. We have a number of drivers and we have a concept,” Marko said.

"But of course every re🧸sult is [important] for🌞 Sergio, and eighth [seventh] place from second on the grid is certainly not what we expected.”

Perez, who has not finis🌼he🥀d higher than seventh since the Miami Grand Prix nine races ago, acknowleged he had a “very disappointing race”.

“It started well, I was just struggling a lot on the straights✅,” he explained. “I don't know what was going on, but I had to save battery early on in the first couple of laps, and I was just very weak on the straights, and once I managed to clea꧒r it, charge the pack a bit, I was staying there.

"But then the second stint, jumping onto the medium tyre with all the traffic behind, it just made it really, really difficultﷺ. Very tricky.

"We did quite a short stint as well, so we were just out of sync. I think we were just not good with tyres to♓day. Balance wasn't there as well, so plenty of things to analyse on our side.

"On Saturday I had a good qualifying, a good day. It doesn't change anything. I think we have too much going on in the teamꦚ and a lot of things that we have to focus on, and we cannot waste any energy with all this speculation.

"This is the last time I will speak about the future, so just to make it clear for 🦩everyone, I will not be speaking anymore. I will not answer any more questions about the future.”
