Formula 1 arrives this weekend in South America with the celebration of the Brazilian Grand Prix, the twenty-first race of the 2024 season. Mexican driver Sergio Checo Pérez comes to this event with the goal of breaking his bad streak of 15 consecutive races without reaching the podium this year.
After his disappointing result at the Mexican Grand Prix, where he finished in the last position of the race, Checo Pérez finds his team, Red Bull, in third place in the constructors' championship. There is renewed speculation about the possible departure of the Jalisco native from Red Bull at the end of the season if he does not improve his performance, making his participation at the Interlagos Circuit crucial.
Regarding Checo's history in Brazil, in the 12 races he has participated in, he has never managed to reach the top three. His best result has been a fourth place on three occasions, the last of which occurred last year when he had an exciting battle with Fernando Alonso, who finished third. The driver from Guadalajara has managed to be in points contention eight times, and his worst performance was a retirement due to collision in 2012 when he was competing for the Sauber team.
Last year, Sergio Checo Pérez achieved his first top 3 in Brazil, although it was in the sprint race, which motivates him to seek better results in this year's Grand Prix.
