Perez sees positive part of busy schedule: 'get into our rhythm'

The summer break has done Sergio Perez good, the Mexican says in Red Bull Racing's press release. The driver feels he is fully prepared both physically and mentally to show himself in a positive light in the final nine races.

Max Verstappen's team-mate was on the podium six times before the summer break, but not during the last three Grands Prix. While he crashed out in Austria with car problems, he had to settle for fourth and fifth in France and Hungary respectively.

Perez feels positive

The holiday has done him good, however, because Perez is eager to continue the season. In Belgium, he has the opportunity to get a lot of points for his team right away, after which the races at Zandvoort and Monza soon follow.

"It has been a good break and I have really recharged for the second half of the season," Perez said. "There are great races coming up, especially Belgium on a track that I always enjoy and the fans are always amazing there. I cannot wait to get back to work and see my Team."

Although a busy schedule immediately awaits the drivers, Perez sees the benefit of this for his team. "I think it’s nice to start after the break with a triple header, where we can really get into our rhythm."
