Sergio Perez’s radio message attacking FIA in full as Red Bull star risks punishment

Sporting regulations punish any driver for “any misconduct towards licence-holders, officials, officers or member of staff of the staff of the FIA and members of the staff of the organiser or promoter”. The Red Bull star was also critical of the race stewards in the media pen when asked to give his view on the contact with Norris.

He said: “I think the stewards were very poor today in my opinion. We’ve seen a lot worse, we touched tyre to tyre, Lando cut the corner and I still had the penalty.

“You’ve got to remember when you drive from behind you go into the breaks late, you are not in full control of the car. “Lando knew I was there, he decides to turn in, we made contact tyre to tyre as I said. I just feel in my honest opinion, it’s a racing incident.”
