First Mexican driver to lead a lap in his home GP and first Mexican to finish on the podium in his home GP. Vamos Checo!

Can we take a moment to appreciate that both Red Bulls drivers manage to get a podium in their home races?

He's dad semmed more happy than Perez himself.

One year ago he was being kicked out of his ex team and saying goodbye to f1, today he’s helping his new team to win WCC and getting a podium at his home GP. What a fantastic driver!

That moment when he started speaking his home language and the crowd went wild. "MAGICAL"

[PMC]

This is just as special as Sergio's 1st win last year that ignited the hearts of the world. I don't speak Spanish and forgive me if I've got this a little bit wrong, but Mucho Corazon es Mucho Huevos seems fitting. Bravo Checo!! 👏✌👊 Respect. History.

As Max Verstappen would say… “SIMPLY SIMPLY LOVELY!”

[alexyoung]

I've never seen anyone look as happy as when Sergio Perez's dad sees his son on the podium. Every time it's sheer elation.

If Checo had won:
“Breaking News: Mexico City has issued a smog warning as a result of an excessive amount of red, green, and white smoke originating from a motor sporting event organized by Formula 1”

It was so great to see his dad absolutely losing his mind ❤

[mutinous]

Mexicans are some of the most grateful, helpful, and hard-working people in the world! Its awesome to see Perez being able to repay their support with a home podium!

[laszlokaestner]

Perez senior dancing with the Mexican flag has to be one of the happiest things I've seen in 2021!

Check at 1:08 the crowd´s reaction when Checo start to speak in Spanish. One of the moments of the season for sure!
Checo´s Mexican fans and Max´s Dutch fans are equally impressive when they celebrate the podiums of their drivers!

[josephmaldonado]

When he starts speaking in Spanish and the whole crowd roars...goosebumps.

00:19 "No mames"
Solo los mexicanos entendemos ese sentimiento 😅

[PaperStackerJ]

If they react like this for a podium imagine a Perez W in Mexico 🤯

[Richard-Gore]

40 laps with medium tyres.
Checo, the driver of the day!
Well deserved!🍾

[aldoAngelOD]

Thanks for everything Sergio Pérez today is a day of Celebration in Mexico thanks for great driving

It is lovely when Max can have a teammate to rely on! Hope to see Checo in RB team for few more years, he earned it!
