Sergio Perez Condemns Father’s Homophobic Comments on Ralf Schumacher

The Red Bull driver distanced himself from his father's remarks, emphasizing his disagreement and promoting respect within the Formula 1 community.

Sergio Perez publicly criticized his father, Antonio Perez Garibay, for making homophobic comments about Ralf Schumacher during an ESPN podcast interview.
Antonio Perez suggested Schumacher's criticism of his son's performance at Red Bull was linked to his recent coming out as being in a same-sex relationship.
Perez emphasized his disapproval of his father's remarks, stating he does not share those views and can only control his own words and actions.
Ralf Schumacher responded calmly, expressing understanding for a father's protective instincts but suggesting that on-track results are a better response to criticism.
The incident occurs as Perez faces scrutiny over his performance, currently sitting eighth in the drivers' championship ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
