International media responds to news of Perez coming to Red Bull

Algemeen Dagblad

Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad thinks that the experience that Perez already has is especially important, where Red Bull Racing has contracted young drivers in recent years. "The timing of Pérez is excellent, it now appears. Of course, that victory will have helped to convince the team management of Red Bull Racing, which was also considering a longer stay for Alexander Albon for a long time".

Het Parool

Dutch newspaper Het Parool also calls experience and timing crucial in the decision. But the underperformance of Alexander Albon is also discussed. "The young British Thai was weighed for a season and a half, but in the end it was found to be too light. Not for a moment did Albon manage to stay close to Verstappen, both in qualifying and in the races. Twice to the podium in 26 races on behalf of Red Bull Racing, that's very sparse. However, Albon will continue to be involved in the formation as a test and reserve driver."

Gazzetta Dello Sport

The Italian newspaper Gazzetta Dello Sport writes that the victory of Perez in Sakhir was decisive. "The statement confirming the collaboration states that the recent victory of the Sakhir Perez Grand Prix has made Perez the favorite choice".

Marca

According to the Spanish newspaper Marca, it is right that Perez gets the chance to continue in Formula 1. "Checo Perez will rightly continue in Formula 1, in an announcement that took a long time to be announced, but in the end came from the Red Bull team."
