The Mexico City Grand Prix of Formula 1 is set to take place this weekend as the twentieth race of the 2024 season. This event has been a stage for epic moments and challenges for Mexican driver Sergio "Checo" Pérez.
Checo Pérez, recognized in the motorsport world, has had ups and downs at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, where he has participated in all editions since its return to the calendar in 2015. Although he has had different results in previous years, his performance has been constantly evolving.
The Guadalajara native has managed to reach the podium twice in Mexico, both times with Red Bull in 2021 and 2022. Despite this improvement in his performance with the Red Bull team, Checo Pérez still faces challenges on the circuit, having experienced retirements on several occasions.
This year, Checo Pérez arrives at the Mexico City Grand Prix with the mission of reversing his current bad streak, which has led him to accumulate 14 consecutive races without a podium. He currently sits in eighth place in the drivers' championship, which motivates him to seek a better result on a track that is particularly significant to him.
Despite the difficulties, Checo Pérez has expressed his dream of conquering the Mexico City Grand Prix, a goal that has so far eluded him. With the support of the Mexican fans, the driver will strive to achieve his objective and deliver an exciting spectacle in his home race.
