Sergio Perez appears to be on track for another one-year deal to remain Max Verstappen’s teammate at Red Bull in 2023. There has been speculation the energy drink-owned team may be looking to re-promote Pierre Gasly, or perhaps even snap up Fernando Alonso, whose Alpine deal expires this year. “Alonso is a great driver,” team boss Christian Horner said in Miami. “It’s fantastic that he is still in Formula 1 but he doesn’t fit in our plans.”. In fact, Horner has described maintaining the status quo at Red Bull a “no brainer”. “But we are not in a hurry to do something in the near future.”.
