Sergio Perez had Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen laughing hysterically after taking an amusing post-race swipe at Aston Martin.
In Sunday's season opening Grand Prix in Bahrain, it was Verstappen who led the Mexican home in a one-two for Christian Horner's team, but Fernando Alonso stole the limelight with his third placed finish. Aston Martin partner Lance Stroll was sixth, as the British team sent out a warning that they could be surprise challengers this year.
Much of their turnaround has been credited to the arrival of technical director Dan Fallows, who moved over from Red Bull in 2022. But cynics have also insinuated that the designs of the current AMR23 cars is very much based on the Constructors' champions.
