Mexican Sergio Checo Pérez achieved his best F1 qualification during the Imola Grand Prix by taking second place Time 1: 14,446, Just behind Lewis Hamilton who achieved center stage in the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prixa.

Checo Pérez was surprised on the second day of activities and was able to stand behind only the world champion, Which sent a time of 1: 14.411. After living in Bahrain, the Tapatio advanced to the third quarter, where it was eliminated in the second quarter. This is not the first time that he has qualified for second place, he did so in Azerbaijan 2016. However, this time he was punished and lost the first row at the start. As of the time of publication of this note, RB16B has not been sanctioned for any technical reason, therefore This will officially be his best starting position in F1.

Checo finished sixth in Group A with 1: 15.395. Vertappen ranked fourth, 1: 15.109.

During the second qualifying round, Perez achieved 1: 14.716, to finish first in the classification, ahead of young Lando Norris, who was slower than Chico by just 0.002pps of a thousand.

The third place he spent in Emilia-Romagna went to Max Verstappen – Chico hadn’t beaten the young Dutchman in his second Red Bull race just something that many had been expecting.

Negative point Sergio Perez will be embarking for this weekend at Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari with the soft boat, Because this would allow him less time on the track during his first term – although on the other hand it is Checo Pérez, the jockey who stood out for his rubber runners.

But not everything is negative when starting with the softer tire, because with this Checo he will be able to track down Hamilton with a good start and the fastest tire on the first laps. However, if Perez fails to overtake Lewis at the starting point, each lap will be more complicated, due to greater wear of the rubber – which also degrades faster if you follow the path of another car.

A thrilling start to the competition takes place in Imola, as the Red Bulls fight – in various strategies – against the world champion. Since Mexico 2018, Red Bull has not had its first two cars in the top three.

Perez will seek to climb to the podium after his presentation in that ring in 2020 where he finished sixth after starting 11th with Racing Point – this will be his first match for RB.

The race will take place in Italy at 8:00 AM CST.

Checo Pérez is fifth in the F1 World Drivers’ Championship with 10 points.
