Sergio Perez’s first public appearance after Red Bull exit:

— Sergio Perez shared that it’s too early to decide on a potential F1 comeback after leaving Red Bull Racing.

— Speaking at a press conference in Leon, Mexico, Perez expressed his priority to enjoy time with his family and take a break from the spotlight before making career decisions in the next six months.

“My priority is to enjoy myself, to do things I haven’t done, to be with my family,” he said, as quoted by ESPN Deportes.

“In the next six months, I will make a decision on what I want for the next step in my career.”

— Perez remains connected with Red Bull as an ambassador and through show runs for the brand, though he hasn’t ruled out an F1 return.

“It’s too early to give an answer as to whether I intend to return to Formula 1,” Perez stated. 

“Everything happened very quickly at the end of last season; I didn’t expect to leave the team.”

— He also highlighted his motivation to be more present in his children’s lives, after years of being focused on racing.

“My biggest motivation now is to take my children on a good path and be more present in their lives,” he said.

— Perez revealed his immediate plans, including a soccer tournament with his son, Sergio Perez Junior, in Mexico at the end of January.

“My biggest motivation is that I have a soccer tournament with Checo [his son] in three weeks, and we are going to travel around Mexico,” he said.

“My biggest motivation is that we do well in his tournament, that I can enjoy it a lot with my son.”
