“Obvious” who would leave Racing Point F1 team for Vettel - Perez

Sergio Perez says it is “obvious” who would make way at Ra꧑cing Point if the team di♚d sign Sebastian Vettel for the 2021 Formula 1 season.
Ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix, Vettel - who is leaving Ferrari at the end of the season - confirmed he has held 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:“loose talks” with Racing Point about joining the team when it rebrands into the 🐟Astไon Martin works squad next year.
Current Racing Point drivers Perez and Lance Stroll both have contracts for next year, and the Silverstone-based outfit haꦜs reiterated its intention to continue with the same line-up for 2021, though team principal Otmar Szafnauer has refused to definitively rule out a move for Vettel.
As the son of Racing Point team and new Aston Martin chairman Lawrence Stroll, it is wide🌞ly expected that S💖troll will be retained.
Speaking in an interview for Movistar+ F1, 🅰Perez suggestꦿed he would likely be the one who makes way in the event of Vettel arriving.
"I think [the choice] is obvi🔯ous if someone has to go," Perez said.
"I'm a dad, I wouldn't kick my son out, but thღere's not much I can say. There are many [rumours] around. From me, nothing - everything remains the same. I have a contract with the team.”
Perez made it clear in Hungary th꧃at he has a valid contract for 2021, but confirmed in the interview that he does have a break clause in his current Racing Point agreement.
"In all contracts, there are always clauses," Perez explained. “It🅘 is a bit related to sponsorship. That can open that clause.
"But we're working hard with alౠl our sponsors so that this does not happen. I would not say that it depends on a single sponsor, it is more of an overall issue.”

The Mexican revealed he has 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:already received approaches from teams in other motorsport catဣegories, as well as another F1 outfit - believed to be Alfa Romeo - for next year.
“I know that during the week the rumours came out and we actually got contacted by a team in the paddock. I 🌸won’t say names,” Perez said on Thursday in Hungary.
“Also other teams in other categories, which was quite a surprise because we have a contract for the ne⛦xt few years here but at the moment they are just rumours around.”
