Criticism and scrutiny come hand in hand with the pursuit of success. Amidst the challenging circumstances faced by Sergio Perez, an ex-Red Bull prodigy has come forward with a harsh reality check. Jaime Alguersuari, recently voiced his thoughts on Perez’s struggles, shedding light on the immense difficulty of the Mexican driver’s position alongside the exceptional Max Verstappen.

Alguersuari’s remarks in the Skysports F1 podcast underscore the immense challenge faced by the Mexican driver. Drawing upon their shared history of racing in F3 and other series, Alguersuari acknowledges Perez’s current struggle and the high standard set by Verstappen.

Jaime Alguersuari pulls no punches in his assessment, emphasizing that Perez’s position alongside Verstappen is an arduous one. He acknowledges, “The job that he(Perez) has now is a very difficult job because Max is an extraordinary driver, probably the best driver in the world; he knows the team and the car; and Checo is struggling big time, and I know there is much more to come from him. We have to be very clear that Checo was never in the junior team, and if he were considering how Helmut Marko judges the driver, he wouldn’t have lasted a year.”
