Sergio Pérez will remain a Cadillac driver until at least the end of 2029, Formula 1 confirmed on 28 October. His home Grand Prix in Mexico is set to be his 300th F1 start.
One weekend, two different stakes
The milestone belongs to one race; the contract concerns years of work. For a new team, keeping the driver who has experienced its development can provide useful continuity. That is the significance of retention, rather than evidence that the announcement itself makes the car faster.
Another driver has an opportunity before the race: Browning is preparing for two practice appearances.
