Sergio Perez will not appear on track due to illness

Red Bull driver Sergio Perez will not appear in Austria on Thursday. The Mexican is not feeling well so he will have to miss the media day.

A Red Bull Racing spokesman informed that the six-time race winner became unwell last night and is taking thursday off, hoping to become fit enough for the remainder of the weekend. It is not the first time a Red Bull driver has been ill this season. Max Verstappen also had to miss a media day when he was ill with a stomach virus in Jeddah. What exactly is wrong with Perez is not yet clear.
