Perez on Aston Martin replacing him after Racing Point rebrand
Sergio Perez says there is “no loyalty” in Formula 1 after he was not kept on by Racing Point for its rebrand into Aston Martin, despite having helped Lawrence Stroll buy the team when it was Force India. Perez said: "It was difficult. I had a three-year contract with the team, obviously with options in it, and my future was going to be with that team... But then obviously Sebastian came available. A four-time world champion became available, and I understood this is how the sport works... So he had an option. He didn't renew it, and then he went for Sebastian. I was like, 'Look, there is no loyalty in this sport.' I didn't take it personally."

Bortoleto on criticism of the 2026 F1 regulations
Gabriel Bortoleto says he does not agree with criticism of the 2026 Formula 1 regulations that the fastest drivers are no longer inherently quick, arguing the leading names are still competitive despite complaints about the impact of electric energy recharging on racing. Bortoleto said: "Do you see Verstappen being slow? Do you see a seven-time world champion being slow this year? Do you see Leclerc being slow? I don't see them being slow. I still see them very competitive. So I wouldn't say fast drivers are slow."
