What makes Sergio Perez so good on F1 street tracks? All of his wins for Red Bull have come on street circuits, and across his whole career the numbers show that he's more competitive when the walls are closer to the edge of the track.
In this video we explore what it is about his driving style that makes him so well-suited to street circuits, and we explain the key factors behind his most recent win on the streets of Baku in battle with Max Verstappen.

@jesusmoysen4759 Год назад

I don't thinkt that would work. People always have part of their car off the track on turns because only one wheel needs to be in the circuit. That variability allows max to get more speed, or at least I imagine he is able to because of that. You can see it in how checo hit the wall in t15 trying to make the turn as wide as possible. He is able to maximize the space withing the walls.

It's really the slow corners that allows him to beat Max on streettracks. Last year in Baku it was Checo who overheated his reartires which allowed Max to take the lead and pull a gap. I don't think Checo has Max beaten in tire management, they're both top of the field along with Lewis.

There was an interview where his dad said growing up in their karting days he never bought his sons new tires he always bought them used tires from the mechanics since they were so expensive. Checo and his brother learned to drive with used tires and learned to get a natural feel for traction and tyre control thats translating to doing well in street courses.

Ah, the Rosberg special. Except Rosberg was actually able to outpace Lewis on traditional track, meanwhile Perez only shines on street circuits and he is invisible on many other tracks. Max would need a lot of DNFs to make up for Perez's shortcomings and that's with no one else coming into the mix especially towards the end of the season. Just how RB used to catch up to Mercs late into the season, the same could happen with Ferrari/AM/Mercedes.

@thomasgoodwin2648 Год назад

One important factor you missed is one of the most important to a racer. Vision. The close walls of street circuits allows you to keep your vision up by gauging corner apexes using only periphery vision. In open tracks you need to look down to the actual apex, which is distracting from your attention further down the road. Also there is a physical limitation that a moving eye doesn't form actionable imagery for the brain to make decisions with. Shifting focus takes time. With a strong peripheral vision, you can gauge the corners much more accurately then those who have to shift focus.

no the balance from 2022 has been addressed and the fronts are much more grippy now so the balance is oversteery this year.

@bynahelemaal Год назад

@@corpsecoder_nw6746 technically it’s more a neutral car, but it has a tendency to be more understeery, as confirmed by rbr and both drivers. In some occassions oversteer moments can happen, but the majority of the time it’s more understeer prone! A 60-40 situation! This explains verstappen’s multiple complaints of understeer during fp’s and even in baku(although baku also showed a couple of oversteer moments), where he has to adjust with the onboard tools to take out the understeer, and why perez is more on pace with verstappen this season! It is way less understeer than last season though!

After telling Checo "superb drive Checo, you deserved that", he gets on the radio with Max "Max, Checo got LUCKY today, it's a long season, you got good points today Max". Horner will do anything to appeased Max, including throwing his winning driver under the bus.

So, when a driver retires from F1, but still wants to compete in car racing, they HAVE go to a less prestigious category. Simply because F1 is the pinnacle of car racing. So when you leave F1, the only options you have left are less pretigious classes. EVERY SINGLE F1 DRIVER who retired from F1 ended up going to a less "prestigious" category (if they wanted to continue racing). For example, eleven time F1 GP winner Felipe Massa, for example, went to Formula E and later to Stock Car. F1 legend Barrichelo is also competing on Stock Car (he's a two time champion there). Which why your idea of "not prestigious enough" makes ZERO sense. So the guy is out of F1. He has retired from F1. He won't go to less important classes. So what's he gonna go?

Because he's in the best car and isn't terrible at street tracks, which is a unique combination on the grid.

I hope we can see another Hamilton v Rosberg style fight between Max and Checo this year.

@erikreddington461 Год назад

First, I don't think not out of the question for redbull to focus on Checo, as they could push his championship. Second I think the cars handle very different so 1 redbull is strong at every track insuring constructor championship

@Heisenberg_747 Год назад

His secret is he got lucky with the safety car - Horner

@LeJimster Год назад

The main problem Checo has had in the past is development went heavily towards Max as they were fighting other teams for the title and he was spending far too much time trying different setups trying to find something that he could use. This often meant sacrificing some performance for stability and so Max was always going to have the advantage. I feel like there is a handful of proper race tracks that Checo should be naturally very strong at and if he can't do the business at these places, it's going to be near impossible for him to beat Max over a season. I live in hope though!

He's great in general. He's just been the number 2 driver strategy wise for RB until last year. This year it seems like he don't give af anymoreand will give max the run for his money. Max has messed up and betray him too many times now.

@AttilatheThrilla Год назад

I was actually so glad Max was humble from Perez’s win.. The Horner message to Max was not humble and clearly showed favouritism.. I feel like in that moment Max was thinking (shut up, man)

@samwlloyd Год назад

Checo was brilliant but the fact remains Max lost 2 x grid positions when pitting, F1 is about 0,1s differences on team pit stops and in a place like Baku where the overtakes was few and far between that had a impact. If Max would have won or not is not the point he was unlucky.

@michaelp4122 Год назад

Max has won the same number of races on street tracks since they became teammates. Why is that ignored. Sergio is good on streets, but he its out of this world on them.

@Yahniboy Год назад

I always thought that it was much harder to race on street tracks than road courses. You need more concentration because of the walls/Armco. You need more race craft as well. It’s harder to be faster on street circuits so why can’t he win on conventional tracks? He has great tyre management and he is one of them best late brakes on the grid. I think this year he will do much better than previous years simple because the car is more neutral than over steery. His biggest concern is reliability

@22masz Год назад

i think it's in a sense easier to drive. the route a driver needs to drive is already pan out because of margin of error the walls. just when you see the driving lines during wet races i inmagine with paint most drivers follow the same lines; in a one stopper in hards its also hard to find grip most drivers need to drive out performance. if the entire season was on street circuit people would adapt. but to me in this format street circuit with one stopper on hards is the least competitive setup of all the possible setup. kinda like nyck de vries performance in monza last year; if you dont put a foot down you "win"

Why is everyone saying he is the king of street circuits. This is the only race so far (for red bull) he has won on merit. I think he would have over taken verstappen if the safety car didn't come out.

@OscarZheng50 Год назад

would love to see an actual title fight and perez is my favorite driver on the grid, but i don't think perez has the consistency over the whole season. sure he'll win here and there, but mostly because of luck as his teammate is just as good, if not better than him

@rohit_884 Год назад

Clearly Max would have won at Baku if it wasn't for the mess up in pit stop just before the SC.

@gvi341984 Год назад

Because Red bulls rear air effects causing negative pressures on the tires meaning less wear and better acceleration

Champtionships are won by consistenly scoring high & taking wins, race after race. So far Checo has never been able to do this. He is in top form this year and if he ever has a chance at the champtionship it is now.

Seriously, if he ain't lucky explain how he won his first championship. Max is very talented, but does way too much finger pointing and crying for a champion. If anything doesn't go his way it's time to get the crying towel out. Listen to his team radio, it's hard to believe his cockpit isn't flooded!
