Pérez shows confidence: Expects "similar kind of performance" on different tracks

Sergio Pérez could celebrate after the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. The Red Bull Racing driver conquered the victory and left the critics behind for the time being. At the press conference, the Mexican knew all too well how important the first place was.

Pérez notices that he and his team are performing better and better. "It certainly feels that I’ve made good progress, not just this weekend, also in Monaco, every weekend the understanding grows and after each weekend we do a very deep analysis, we do a lot of work back in the factory to try to figure out what we can do better as a team," Perez said.

The Red Bull driver, meanwhile, is confident that the gap between his teammate Max Verstappen and him is getting smaller. "We are improving and I see no reason why going to a different track we cannot be able to have a similar kind of performance. My confidence is growing, the understanding with the team is getting there," he added.

However, he is aware that the Formula One season has only just begun and a lot can still happen in the coming months. "It’s only race number six of the season, there’s still plenty to go but it’s important to keep this momentum and to keep improving, race after race."
