Sergio Perez will start the Belgian Grand Prix from the front row of the grid. During qualifying, the Red Bull driver achieved the third fastest time in Q3, allowing him to start from P2 on Sunday. Still, the Guadalajara-based driver was not entirely happy after his qualifying. He did not like Red Bull's choice to send him out early.
Asked if Perez was happier with his RB20 this weekend than in previous weeks. "Not initially. We tried a lot of things. I think we found a nicer window, a little bit similar in the direction of Hungary. But we were a lot happier with the car. The balance in the medium/high speed was feeling positive in the right direction. Let's see tomorrow. I think tomorrow is going to be a very different day," the Mexican responded.
"I was already quick in Q1, Q2. The problem was our run programme. We finished a lap before everyone. I think it was P4 or something, but then when you give a lap away, everything was really, really close, so we were very lucky to be able to make it.I think it was definitely a mistake on our run programme to have left us vulnerable, basically," Perez concluded.
