Let's immediately give Sergio Pérez a point. In terms of confidence, outlook and morale, it can't be easy every day to be the teammate of Max Verstappen.

The title is destined to fall into the hands of Max, Red Bull's darling! What's more, he no longer makes any big mistakes unlike Tex Mex who is only number 2 but certainly Red Bull's best number 2 since the Vettel / Webber duo
