For so long, Mexican fans demanded merchandise from their local hero, Sergio Perez. And shortly before the Mexican Grand Prix, Perez and Red Bull have fulfilled the wishes of a huge Mexican fanbase.

Checo Perez, who recently renewed his contract for next season, included a clause that the Mexican driver will come together with Red Bull to launch his own line of merchandise. The collection will be released in collaboration with Puma, a month prior to the Mexican Grand Prix.

The collection comprises shirts, sweatshirts, a cap, pants, and sneakers. Perez’s merchandise will be available on Red Bull’s website and other online shops.

“Yes, it’s obviously very disappointing. I think we were extremely unlucky today. Could have gone either way really, you know. If it rained a little bit less, then the people on the inters would have [suffered],” said Sergio Perez after the race.

“If it rained a bit more, it obviously favored them. I think at the point I was on the lap, it was a little bit too late to know, you know – the amount of rain we were going to have as well – so we were already on the podium, it was a tricky decision to make,” concluded Perez.

After the Russian Grand Prix, Sergio Perez sits fifth in the drivers’ championship with 120 points, just 7.5 points ahead of Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz.
