Sergio Perez Expected to Leave Red Bull Racing After 2024 Season Finale

The veteran F1 driver faces an uncertain future as Red Bull signals a likely end to his tenure following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

  • Sergio Perez, currently eighth in the F1 drivers' standings, is widely reported to be departing Red Bull Racing after the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
  • Despite signing a contract extension earlier this year, reports suggest Red Bull may transition Perez into an ambassadorial role or part ways entirely.
  • Perez's performance has declined sharply since the start of the season, with no podium finishes in the last 18 races and only 28 points in the past 10 events.
  • Team principal Christian Horner stated Perez will decide his own future, emphasizing the team's support through the season finale but hinting at an impending decision.
  • Liam Lawson is considered a frontrunner to replace Perez, with other Red Bull-affiliated drivers like Yuki Tsunoda and Isack Hadjar also in contention for the seat.
