168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s father, Antonio Perez Garibay, is planning to expose “lying journalists” amid the speculation su൩rrounding his son’s F1 future.

Perez’s future in F1 is uncertain, with Red Bull reportedly keen to replꦍace him for the 2025 sea🥀son.

Perez has failed to secure a podium finish since the 🐓Chinese Grand Prix in April, and his poor form has contributed to Red Bull falling to third place in the F1 constructors’ championship.

The Mexican driver’s future has been a hot topic throughout the year, with Perez nearly losing his seat to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo during the summer break.

Despite retaining his seat for the second half of the season, Perez has struggled to deliver strong results apart from his impressive performance in Azerbaijan before an incident with168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Carlos Sainz put him out of the race.

Antonio Perez expressed his frustratioꦛn over the rumours via h✨is Instagram account.

He wrote: “The lying journalists are already looking for me. Committed to ask for public apologies whoever is the liar or their servant. Monday, publishing the list o🦩f lying journalists and lying media.”

In another pos🅷t, he added: “Thanks for the interview. Someone is lying. We will know Monday!”

Perez’s contract situation

One factor that may work in Perez’s favour is his existing contrac🌜t for 2025.

This means Red Bull would need to ei🐭ther pay him off or keep him in the team.

Sky Sports commentator David C♛roft explained: “Our sources indicate that Red Bull don’t want to continue necessarily with Sergio Perez for next season, and they’re trying to say you can either go nicely, step down, or we will take a decision after the race in Abu Dhabi and we will make that decis🍎ion for you. 

“The fact is, in the last few weekends, second half of this season, Sergio Perez has not scored the amount of points that Red Bull want. Nine points in the last seven grand prix weekends. Max Verstappen in the same car, 126 points. That’s what loses you a🎃 Constructors’ Championship.”

However, Sky Sports Neꦜws reporter Craig Slater suggested Red Bull might have an alternative solution, involving moving Perez to a different role within the team.

Slater explained: “On that contract… Does the contract have a clear stipulation? Yes, he will be staying at Red Bull, b๊ut will he be driving F1 machinery? My information is, which is a big surprise, it doesn’t have that particular codicil within it. Theoretically, Red Bull could keep paying him but hav൲e him drive show cars, perhaps spend the year as an ambassador, but they wouldn’t need to keep him in a car.”
