Lawrence BarrettoSergio Perez is starting to make it very difficult for Red Bull not to give him a new deal for 2025 after he secured his third second place in four races in Japan – but several others have been linked with the drive.

Perez, who joined Red Bull for 2021, has a contract that runs up until the end of the current campaign. By his own admission, he endured a challenging season in 2023 as he battled to get to grips with the RB19, the Mexican winning two races to his team mate Max Verstappen’s 19.
