In AUTOhebdo this week: Sergio Pérez, New Mexico

His father had almost announced it. Questioned by journalists in the days preceding the Malaysian Grand Prix, Antonio Pérez Garibay played the prophet: if the rain bathed the Sepang track, as the weather forecast predicted, his son would achieve “something never seen before” . Influential name in Mexican motorsport, and himself champion of Mexico Formula 3 of 1987, Mr. Pérez explains: “This ability to drive very fast in the rain is a talent that he developed very young. With his brother, he accumulated hours of karting from the age of six, he even rode in the torrential downpours that characterize the rainy season in Guadalajara”…

The rest of this exclusive meeting granted to AUTOhebdo by the father of Sergio Pérez can be discovered in our 1851 edition dated Wednesday April 4, 2012 and available on newsstands or in digital version via this link.
