Sergio Perez

The popular Perez had some fine moments in 2021, his first season at

Red Bull, but ultimately he was too far off Verstappen too often and the team lost the constructors’ title. The regulation change should help him as it forces the team into a new design philosophy that the Mexican will hope makes the car less edgy and nervous. It’s an important season for Perez – he’s entering his 12th year in F1 and now knows Red Bull, so must deliver in 2022.
