Honestly their environment is too toxic for any driver. Maybe DR is the only one who can do well since he is Horner's favorite child. You cannot have 3 drivers in the recent past having same issues, at some point you have to portion blame to the team. In a world where Piastri-Lando, Lewis-George and Charles-Carlos are within a tenth of each other is proof enough the second seat is neglected at RB. Also doesn't help when Helmet Marko is throwing racist stereotypes at your second driver.

Hating on these guys is ridiculous. The pressures they put themselves through is well beyond what the average human endures.
As my mentor likes to say, “you try it…”
It sure is easy to run your mouth whilst sitting in your favourite comfy chair.

Maybe Checo should consider swapping seats with Daniel.

Just as Checo is struggling in a car that has an oversteer bias, Daniel is equally struggling in a car with an understeer bias.

I can bet that if Checo swapped to the VCARB01, not only will he have a car that will put him in the P6-P10 range, but he will be able to comfortably follow Yuki if not outright pass him compared to Daniel.

[SURGASURGE]

Sergio Perez is a weird driver to assess. His junior career was nothing special, but when he was in midfield teams he was beating highly-rated teammates and scoring podiums. But then at Red Bull, he only had 1 good season out of 4. Perhaps he is better in mediocre cars than in good cars, but I'm sure he's not as bad as he is right now. Maybe it's a psychological issue. Who knows.

[thanawatsakulkaew]

I still remember the days Checo fans are soo relentless on Albon. Don't get me wrong, I cheered Checo for that Red Bull seat but Checo fans are really something else. But now? They srl say that people are 'cyberbullying' checo when they literally did it in 2020 with Albon

[Jurenic]

I've been saying this for a while. It's not only the driver skill, it's how the team develops their car around their fastest driver that matters. If they developed around Perez, the results would be flipped (maybe not as much one sided as they are now). That's why nobody wants to face Max in a RedBull. The same was the case with Vettel. They had the car developed around him and then he vent to Ferrari and suddenly isn't dominant anymore. Same with Schumacher. I believe the true talent currently are Alonso and Hamilton.

[scottyskydog]

Mind games! I believe one the car isn’t suited to Checo, but Max. An the fact between Marko and Horners toxic environment. Get him out of there in a good car I believe we will see the old Checo.

[danishkfd]

At this point, i really wish checo goes back into midfield. He is a really good driver, by the time he retires I want it to be a memorable career, not reminded by his redbull stint

[hasancreed]

He is crashing and underperforming because he is FORCED to drive a car that has not been optimised for his driving preferences or style. They prioritised Max and even he is struggling now. Newey leaving RB is the final nail in the coffin for the team.

[jacobit]

This is the fairest assessment I've seen of Perez in a while. I know he's good, I wanna believe he's good, but I know that RedBull just isn't for him anymore.

[ArunSapaare]

That's exactly what happened to Sebastian Vettel when he moved from Red Bull to Ferrari once Leclerc came on board.

[backoff]

Anyone thinks others can do better is insane. The situation is a given. Checo has already done a hear miracle to live that long.

12:35 i have never seen someone with such a relatable opinion. Honestly the entire video, you have talked about the things in my mind. Great vid mate!

[Medabg]

Good video mate. Agree with most of what you said. I think people underestimate the significance of the car itself. I mean, apart from few drivers (you all know who they are each season), the rest is top 0.0001%. Those tenths of a second per lap are usually more up to the car than the driver. Sure there are mistakes especially during 60, 70 lap races, but im sure quali times would be a lot closer if done on a simulator or an identical car. Just look at max this season. As soon as he started not having a best car, he cant win. His main quailty is consistency and being able to get top 5 even when things dont go his way (unlike some who win, then get 16th, then 7th...). But to say he is few levels above everyone... Yeah, no, your car needs to be in a tip top shape as well.

[iankaranja]

My hypothesis is that redbull is an extremely toxic team. It looks to me like Perez always performs well after breaks away from the team eg start of new season and after summer break. Best evidence of this is how redbull treats drivers. Look at what they did to Gasly and Nick. The only drivers not treated like garbage are Max and annoyingly Danny ( complete waste of f1 seat IMO, Lawson should have that seat)

To be honest, I think F1 in general is very toxic. A sport where your biggest rival is your teammate is kinda super messed up when you think about it.

[mattroyce]

Incredible commentary as always brother

[shakesnbake]

Great video as always. It's like he starts the season believing he has a chance to take it to Max, but then in round 5, Helmut appears in his mirrors 😅 Just don't think it's been the right environmwnt for him.

[prathamkataria]

2020 Sakhir was the first Grand Prix I watched. I was really happy when Red Bull signed Checo for 2021. But sadly he's just not been able to perform. I've always liked the guy but still I think there are other people who deserve the seat more.

[deonli]

Good to see you making videos again
Really enjoyed

[septopus]

It's just the curse of red bull second seat ...

So it was then, now and forever☠️
