Mexican driver Checo Pérez is preparing to compete in the Mexican Grand Prix at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, where he has had success in the past. Xóchitl Gálvez, former presidential candidate, expressed her support for Checo and highlighted the importance of having an outstanding Mexican in Formula 1.
Checo Pérez has stood on the podium twice at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, making him a notable driver in his country. Formula 1 has returned to Mexico with this Grand Prix, and thousands of fans have shown their support for the talented Mexican driver.
During the event at the Circuito de la Magdalena Mixihuca, Xóchitl Gálvez joked about Checo Pérez's accident in the previous edition, hoping that he won't have issues with Charles Leclerc in this race. She is confident that the backing of Mexicans will motivate Checo to deliver a great performance this Sunday and to break his streak of 14 consecutive races without reaching the podium in 2024.
"I hope Leclerc doesn't get in his way. Both have been third in previous editions competing with Red Bull. Now, Checo Pérez's main goal is to win the race and break his negative streak," Xóchitl Gálvez pointed out.
