Pérez warms up with the Red Bull RB15 at Silverstone

Alongside the launch of the new Red Bull RB16B with Honda engine, Sergio Pérez, new recruit of Milton Keynes (United Kingdom), had the opportunity to practice driving the RB15 fielded in 2019 on the Silverstone circuit (Great Britain).

The 31-year-old Mexican, who replaces Alexander albon this season, discovers a new environment in 2021 after 7 seasons spent with Force India/Racing Point. 

Pérez will have the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the new RB16R on Wednesday during a promotional filming day. He will share track time with his new teammate Max Verstappen, while Albon will also be there with the RB15.

The native of Guadalajara (Mexico), winner of the 2020 Sakhir GP, also took the opportunity to unveil his new helmet decoration with a return to neon yellow and the inevitable, and imposing, Red Bull logos.
