It's been pretty much the car for a while now in F1. Perez was excellent in the Racing Point for a while. Cars changed. Lewis was excellent in the Mercedes, then the cars changed. Now George has the edge over him pretty much every race. Stroll is pretty much equal to Alonso. Colapinto is miles ahead of what Sargeant did. Bottas was a pretty good team mate to Lewis but last season he was nowhere because of the Sauber.
The driver car connection is important and Red Bull have been developing away from Perez for quite some time to cater to Max. Now that they're also developing away from Max it suddenly shows that Perez cannot just drive anything. This will also happen to McLaren in the near future, or to Ferrari (again).
Itโs not the car. Last yearโs car was so insanely dominant Max could have won constructors on his own. Perez was struggling to get that car into Q3
