Perez Sr.: What I'm going to say is going to cause a lot of noise.

      Liam Lawson became another racer who could not cope with the skittish nature of the Red Bull Racing car and lost his place in the team to Yuki Tsunoda. It will be found out how the Japanese driver will cope after a while, but last year the career of the experienced Sergio Perez was interrupted, who also could not find an approach to the RB20 car.

      At the same time, Antonio Perez, the Mexican's father, is sure that his son's car was different from the one used by Max Verstappen, his partner.

      "What I'm going to say is going to cause a lot of noise, but Car No. 1 was not the same as car No. 11," he said, taking part in the Formula de 2 podcast. "And if the driver of car No. 1 had been put behind the wheel of car No. 11, he would not have been able to get past the first one either." I would not have been able to beat Car No. 1 in qualifying.

      All this suggests that the cars were not the same, and this is not fiction. Hopefully, things are different now, and in Japan, Yuki will have the best car at his disposal that Red Bull can provide him with.

      They can't upset the Japanese fans, so they have to provide Tsunoda with the best means of fighting. Therefore, he should have exactly the same car (as Verstappen)."
