Sergio Perez could well play a crucial role in the final weekend in Abu Dhabi. The Red Bull Racing driver tried out a number of different settings on Friday, which he hopes will provide him with enough data for the rest of the weekend. He does have some concerns about the revamped Yas Marina circuit, however.
The circuit underwent some major changes since the last Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. As a result, the track is faster, but Perez doubts that the changes will have a positive effect.
Perez not impressed with renewed Yas Marina Circuit
"I don't know how much the track has improved since last year. It's still nice to drive but there are question marks for me on whether it has improved the racing," the Mexican said in a Red Bull Racing press release.
Red Bull used the Friday practice sessions to try out different settings. Perez drove with a different set-up than teammate Max Verstappen. "There will be learnings to take forward into our final practice session so we can look to qualify strongly on Saturday," Perez concludes.
