Sergio Perez has come back relaxed and ready to race after the summer break. The Mexican is looking forward to racing at Spa and will hope to battle for a solid points finish at the end of the race on Sunday. The Racing Point driver enjoyed his time at home but is now ready to get going again. 

“I definitely enjoyed my summer holiday,” said Pérez.  “I went home to Mexico and spent time with my family – relaxing near the beach and having some lazy days.

“The racing season is so busy and it’s important to take time out to catch your breath and recharge the batteries. I’m feeling in good shape as we get back to business.”

The summer break is now over and Formula 1 returns to our screens today. 

“I always say that Spa is the perfect place to restart the season because it’s such a special track,” said the Mexican.  “It’s one of the best races of the year and I love the high-speed corners such as Pouhon. It’s a long lap, too, so when you hook everything up it’s very satisfying.

“Spa usually produces good racing, as well. The first sector and the approach to Les Combes offer good opportunities to overtake."

The Belgian Grand Prix is always entertaining and this year should be no different.
