Sergio Perez has a taste for success after the Imola Grand Prix. The Mexican took a convincing second place and hopes to continue that line in the coming weeks. In a week from now the Miami Grand Prix will start, so Perez is very curious about the track.

The FIA announced last calendar year that there would be a second race in the United States. With the Miami GP, Formula 1 hopes to take the next step in North America. Perez is looking forward to the race, although he hopes that the organization has paid attention to the quality of the track.

"I think it's a good circuit," Perez stated in conversation with Corriere dello Sport. "It has a twisty section that is quite difficult to tackle well, with visibility that can be complicated. The race can be fun with all those straights. I just hope the asphalt is good. When we go to new circuits, we often have surprises."

GP Las Vegas to be on racing calendar from 2023 onwards

Next season the Formula 1 teams will travel to the United States three times. A race in Las Vegas is scheduled in November. With its fast sections, the drivers may be able to break the speed record.
