Perez speaks on 2024 target

The Mexican who, despite finishing second on the 2023 drivers standings, had his season marked by a flurry of underwhelming performances, including a disgraceful outing at the Japanese GP where he was made to retire twice, stated to the press he has taken time to understand the flurry of reasons for his struggles through 2023.

As reported by Motorsports Week, Perez said,

"I'm feeling incredibly refreshed. Reflecting on last year's experiences, it's crucial that we identify what went wrong and extract valuable lessons from our mistakes," he emphasized. "We've gained a deeper understanding of many aspects, and as I enter my fourth year with Red Bull, I have high expectations for my performance this season."

Perez emphasised his goal for the year, stating

"The goal is to maximize every single opportunity, aiming for a strong pace early on and maintaining it throughout the entire season. We're focused on developing throughout this season."

His palpable optimism stems from the productive off-season training and planning he has undertaken with the team in Milton Keynes.

Perez, who is in the final year of his contract with the Austrian team, is under pressure to deliver a stellar performance, reminiscent of the form that led Red Bull to sign him after his time at BWT Racing Point, or face a potential exit from the sport.
