AUSTIN, TEXAS - OCTOBER 21: Sergio Perez of Mexico and Oracle Red Bull Racing prepares to drive on

"These two weekends [Austin and Mexico City] for me are the most important ones, they are where I have the most people coming to support me – they are the most special ones," says Sergio Perez when we catch up.

These two weekends are also important for Perez’s future in Formula 1. The Mexican has a contract that runs until the end of 2024, but he is under significant pressure to prove he deserves to stay on at Red Bull for 2025.
