Marko provides update on Perez future after latest failure
Another disappointing qualifying performance for Sergio Perez has led to criticism from the Red Bull advisor.
Absolutely brutal about Nyck lol.
"He is second in the standings and delivers good races, which distinguishes him from Nyck de Vries
Ouch. Dude.
The line after that, "there is no available to replace him," was especially shocking since they do have Riccardo just sitting there
Didn't Ricciardo recently say he didn't want to get swapped in this season? He'd rather do the full next season instead of struggling to get up to speed.
Ricciardo was too slow in the sim. So he will have to up his game some way to get back in the car. Would love to see in form Ricciardo back though.
Brutal, but not unexpected. T’is the Red Bull way. Which, honestly, I think is preferable to the humble bragging, corporate style bullshit, or straight-up nepotism you get from some of the other teams…

Couldn’t agree more. At least in Helmut Marko’s case.
Yeah, but it's true. I had hoped Nyck would deliver some better races, but at the moment it's just not good enough.
Well, guess he had that decision made up already.
There is also no one available to replace him
Danny Ric?
Too slow
McLaren drained the poor man
I don't believe that really. Yes he was poor at McLaren, but he was fast at RBR and Renault. He won multiple races with RBR, and even one with McLaren. He's definitely better than Perez and Tsunoda.
Letting the tyre temp drop didn't help though
Perez was sitting stationary for around 8mins (you could argue 10min+ given he didn't box after the red flag). Sargeant for around 7 minutes. I don't think either had any tyre temp and yet Sargeat got out of q1.
Perez was suggesting yesterday that it's the conditions which he doesn't like. 4 of the last 5 quali's have been wet I think.
Non-ideal conditions can be a reason for qualifying 4th rather than 2nd where he should be, there's just no excuse for not making Q3 in the fastest car.
that it’s the conditions which he doesn’t like
that may be but you gotta deal with it perez, just like everyone else
