Perez under pressure at Las Vegas Grand Prix: 'I know I have to perform'

"We are coming into a very important weekend in Las Vegas for the Team," Perez said. "This race last year was such an unknown, it was a brand new race, it was a new surface to us all and we were in temperatures we never usually race in. We barely had any data in 2023, so this year we are approaching this street circuit with a lot more information and understanding."

Perez 'needs to maximise'

Perez says he enjoys the track: "I like the street circuit experience, with the walls in tight and you cannot compare to driving down The Strip or towards the Sphere towering over you. While it’s a  spectacle of a race, for everyone attending and watching back home, it’s one where I know I need to perform and maximise this car and my own performance."

"I’ve been working with the team and feel São Paulo was much more competitive than we where able to show, so let’s put it together for the last three," Perez said.
