The possible departure of Sergio "Checo" Pérez from Red Bull Racing has generated speculation about the future of his sponsorship with Teléfonos de México (Telmex). The company, owned by América Móvil, could stop supporting the team starting in the 2025 season if the Mexican driver leaves the team. Despite this, in statements from Carlos Slim Domit on ESPN, it was affirmed that Telmex will continue to support Pérez.
Checo's inconsistent performance in the second half of the season has fueled rumors about his potential departure from Red Bull Racing, despite having a current contract until 2026. Although there have been external criticisms, Christian Horner, the team principal, assured that they will respect the agreement with Pérez and fulfill their commitment to the Guadalajara driver.
Sergio Pérez is estimated to contribute between 30 and 40 million dollars to Telmex outside of the circuits, highlighting his value as a brand ambassador. Carlos Slim Domit acknowledges the importance of the Mexican driver for his brand portfolio and shows confidence in keeping Pérez as an ally in the future.
