In Conversation with Sergio Pérez: A Deep Dive into Racing and Beyond
Interviewer: Good morning, Sergio! It’s a pleasure to have you with us today. How are you doing?
Sergio Pérez: Good morning! I’m doing really well, thank you. It’s great to be here and take a little break from the hectic race schedule. How about you?
Interviewer: I’m wonderful, thanks! Let’s dive right into it. You’ve had an incredible journey in Formula 1. What’s been your most memorable moment on track so far?
Sergio Pérez: That’s a tough one! There have been so many, but I’d say winning the 2020 Sakhir Grand Prix was absolutely unforgettable. Coming from last place to first was like a dream come true for me.
Interviewer: That was epic indeed! How did it feel to finally stand on the top step of the podium?
Sergio Pérez: Honestly, it was surreal. After so many years in F1, finally getting that win was an emotional rollercoaster. It’s not just for me but for everyone who’s supported me through thick and thin. It was a moment of pure joy and relief.
Interviewer: That’s understandable. You’ve been known for your skillful tire management during races. What’s the secret behind it?
Sergio Pérez: Ha, if I told you, I’d have to… well, you know! Jokes aside, it’s a combination of experience, intuition, and a lot of practice. Every race and tire compound behaves differently, so you need to feel the car and tires and adapt your driving style accordingly.
Interviewer: You’ve teamed up with some great drivers throughout your career. How has the relationship with Max Verstappen been at Red Bull Racing?
Sergio Pérez: Max is an incredible driver—super talented and very determined. We push each other pretty hard, which is great. There’s a healthy level of competitiveness between us, but the mutual respect is what makes the partnership work so well.
Interviewer: It’s awesome to see that camaraderie. Moving off the track for a bit, what do you enjoy doing in your downtime?
Sergio Pérez: I love spending time with my family. My kids are growing up fast, and I cherish every moment with them. Besides that, I’m a bit of a foodie. Trying new cuisines and experimenting with cooking is something I really enjoy.
Interviewer: That’s amazing! So, any favorite dishes you’ve mastered in the kitchen?
Sergio Pérez: I’d like to think I make a mean guacamole! Though I’m no professional chef, I enjoy making Mexican dishes. They remind me of home, and it’s always fun experimenting with different flavors.
Interviewer: Mexican food is the best! Lastly, Sergio, what advice would you give to aspiring F1 drivers out there?
Sergio Pérez: Never give up, no matter how tough it gets. Work hard, stay focused, and always believe in yourself. Racing is as much about mental strength as it is about physical talent. Keep pushing, and you’ll get there!
Interviewer: Words to live by. Thank you so much for your time, Sergio. Best of luck for the rest of the season!
Sergio Pérez: Thanks a lot! It’s been a pleasure. See you on the track!
