'Perez is like a cat, not just with nine lives, but with 25 lives!'

It is far from certain that Sergio Perez will continue to be Max Verstappen's teammate in 2025. After securing a contract extension until 2026, there have been many performances that have resulted in far fewer point scores than the Dutchman, along with a lot of mistakes and crashes hindering the Mexican. Jeroen Bleekemolen thinks the latter is because he is doing things to try and get closer to Verstappen.
