Sergio Perez’s nostalgic tribute on his F1 debut in Australian GP

Sergio Perez, debuting in Formula 1 with Sauber in 2011, reminisces his fondest memories at the Albert Park. As he gears up for this weekend’s race, he shared his nostalgia, recalling the joy of his first F1 experience. Eagerly anticipating the event, Checo expressed, “It always reminds me that I debuted here, my first ever race in Formula 1. That was a really good one and one that I really enjoyed.

However, a move to McLaren in 2013 saw Perez endure a challenging season plagued by poor performance.
