Perez sent a positive message to Racing Point on Twitter, clearing the air around the situation between himself and the team.
“I have known this team for seven years and they are like family. I have spoken to the team and they accept my explanation. (there’s no way that after 7 years we can finish in bad terms, the air is totally cleared.)
