Perez happy with pole and benefits from 'mistakes by Max'

Sergio Perez was obviously happy with his pole in Maimi. After a difficult first two days, the Mexican was the fastest - partly due to some luck. "I delivered when it mattered," Perez said at the press conference afterwards.
According to Perez, things are a lot easier in the race than in qualifying. "Yesterday I had a very good pace, although I was struggling for balance. Straight away we put fuel in the car and things became more natural to me."
Perez would not say whether Verstappen will no longer be a factor on Sunday. "Well, at the moment it's these two guys, obviously. I'm mainly focusing now on getting a good start and being able to manage our first tenth."
