Sergio Perez comments on his relationship with Max Verstappen as teammates

During their interview with Lad Bible, the Mexican driver expressed that there was no animosity between him and the reigning world champion. Meanwhile, he admitted that there could be some resentment in such a competitive environment as he had experienced with a teammate before.

“I think sometimes in the past I’ve had some jealousy from a teammate. Because you obviously want to win, but when the guy next to you wins, you have to give the credit, he’s done better than you, he’s won and you have to accept that and also feel proud of what he’s done, the guy next to you.”

“And I think not many people can take it, but I think within us, when I win, when Max wins, there is always we feel proud for each other and that I think is something good within us,” said Checo.
