Perez's funny response to retirement rumors

Despite an extension until 2026 a few months ago, the future of Sergio Perez is still the subject of much discussion. While he is unable to get his head above water and Red Bull can only rely on Max Verstappen, the Mexican has seen all kinds of information about him lately.

It was said under threat of replacement by Daniel Ricciardo, by Liam Lawson, of a thank you by Red Bull. And now the rumor of a retirement has recently emerged. According to these rumors, Checo should even announce the end of his career at home, on the sidelines of the Mexican Grand Prix (October 25-27).

Obviously, this created a lot of noise on social networks and Sergio Pérez felt obliged to react. However, there was no question of publishing a formal statement, stating loudly that he would still be there next year. Far from it. Through his personal accounts, the Red Bull driver simply posted a video that reproduces a scene from the film “The Wolf of Wall Street”.

In it, Jordan Belfort, played by Leonardo di Caprio, is supposed to announce his departure from the company before ultimately retracting with a line that has become very popular. Sorry " wrote Sergio Perez in the caption, amused by the situation.
