It seems like there’s money in the air, and this time, it’s raining in Sergio Perez’s yard. The charismatic Red Bull driver got himself a snazzy new contract in 2022. Here’s the spicy lowdown: Checo has bagged a pay rise which lands him a cool $7.4m. Throw in a bonus of $3.16m, and the chap’s pocketing a total of $10.56m. Yep, you read that right! And it 2021? A mere $8.2m. (Well, “mere” to him, at least.) Although he’s still got a bit of a ladder to climb if he’s looking to match the big boys like Norris, Verstappen, or Hamilton.

Oh, and for those who love a long-term commitment: Perez’s new contract is locked in for two solid years. No more of that “one year plus maybe another year” ambiguity. Seems like, it’s not just the engines that roar, the salaries do too!

Checo is living life in the fast lane, and we’re not just talking about his F1 career with Red Bull.

Back home, Checo is the brand magnet everyone wants a piece of. From his enduring association with Telmex to raising a glass as the brand ambassador for the famous PATRÓN tequila, the man’s got style. Nescafé recently hopped onto the Checo train with their Taster’s Choice range, and let’s not forget his proud role as the tourism ambassador for Jalisco. Twice! Oh, and did we spill the beans about him being a shareholder in Kavak México, the country’s first unicorn? Oops, our bad!

Now, every F1 superstar needs a dazzling ride off the track. Checo’s choice? A jaw-dropping $3 million Bugatti Chiron and a heartwarming first-generation Honda NSX. His abode? A swanky condo in Puerto Vallarta with views that could make anyone envious.
