Sergio Perez has been told to "just drive faster" – or accept that he will always play second fiddle to Max Verstappen.
The two Red Bull drivers took two victories each from the first four races of the season, leaving just six points to separate them in the standings. And Perez had the chance to leapfrog his team-mate and take top spot with victory at the Miami Grand Prix.
The circumstances looked favourable – the Mexican was being cheered on by the majority of the Floridian crowd and started on pole, while Verstappen was ninth on the grid. But the Dutchman executed his race strategy flawlessly and Perez was powerless to resist the overtake late on.
