Sergio Perez silenced his critics with a strong start to the 2023 season – but a slip in form has seen speculation over his future return.
He began the season with two wins from the first four races. Ever after Max Verstappen won the fifth, in Miami, Perez was only 14 points behind his team-mate and well in the fight.
But his last two race weekends have been disastrous for his title ambitions. A crash in Monaco qualifying meant he started that race last and could not overtake on the tight street circuit, meaning he left with zero points.
