Christian Horner welcomes Sergio Perez to Red Bull

Final moment from episode 9 of Drive to Survive's season 3, "Man On Fire". Red Bull contacts Sergio " Checo " Perez to welcome him as their race driver for the 2021 season. My personal favorite scene.

Horner, this is probably one of the best phone calls you've ever made. In Max's words... "Checo, is a LEGEND"...

Fucking goosebumps man, when i watched it for the first time i thought how they will play this out. The whole phone call thing and the music kicking in and you get a feeling that it is not just a mere remake of reality but more importantly message for the Mercedes that they will be coming at them with arguably the strongest line-up of all time. Netflix really nailed it. So happy for the Checko and hope he kicks some ass this season.

Es como si viera una escena post créditos de Marvel

This will be by far the biggest season of his career. Imagine if he destroys Bottas and gets Red Bull the championship

[modak]

By far my favourite moment in drive to survive!

There is also a sub plot to this. Perez was to be discarded by Racing team after the final race in 2020.
That was also in Abu Dhabi only. But he started from 12th position and won that race. Perez said after that race that "I want to be remembered that I gave my all for the team as a true team man".
Horner recruited him in Red Bull in 2021 since he believed in him when no one else did.
Fast forward 12 months and we are at the last race of 2021 at the same venue.
Perez blocked Hamilton to reduce the gap with Verstappen from 10 seconds to 1 sec, otherwise in the final Lap Hamilton should have been 40 seconds ahead and could have done the pitstop to do the soft tyre change.
Then Horner said at lap 52 that "We need a miracle to win."
God gave him that miracle since he did that good karma to Perez exactly 1 year back.
Universe works in mysterious ways. 🙂🙏
