Sergio Perez may have returned to Formula 1 with Cadillac, but according to Auto Sport Web, his management is already assessing the opportunities across the grid. A report from the Japanese outlet states that Perez's representatives have already opened discussions with Williams about a potential seat in 2027 - contingent on Carlos Sainz not being there to fill it.
The Spaniard's contract at Grove seems to be on shaky ground, with the driver indicating that his future will be on his mind plenty during the summer break. This doesn't necessarily come as a surprise. After 11 races, Sainz has finished no higher than ninth and sits 15th with just six points, one ahead of his team-mate Alex Albon. Williams sits a disappointing ninth in the constructors' championship with just 11 points.
