Last Sunday, Sergio Perez told Christian Horner in passing that he would have signed a little too early. That turns out to be about his contract because on Tuesday afternoon Red Bull Racing announced that the Mexican will be part of the team in 2023 and 2024 and will be on the F1 grid for a minimum of two years as a driver.
After Perez's slip on camera, it was mostly a matter of waiting for the news to be confirmed, yet many fans reacted enthusiastically to the news that the Mexican may continue for two more years.
