Racing Point will also be fast in Barcelona
“I’m very lucky that I’ve only had mild symptoms, so I’ve been able to keep training and make sure that I’m ready to jump back behind the wheel of the car. I’m very glad I had my tablet to keep me entertained too, though”, Perez said to Formula1.com.

According to many the fastest team after Mercedes and Red Bull Racing. It was also the moment when the world discovered that the Racing Point looks a lot like a Mercedes.
