Sergio Perez’s Ironic Tweet Amidst the Budget Cap Drama Deleted but Twitter Takes No Prisoners

After weeks of deliberation, we finally have Red Bull as one of the guilty parties who breached the 2021 budget cap. However, the Milton Keynes-based outfit is in minor infraction of the cap. As we wait for the verdict, some reasons given by Red Bull for overspending are hilarious. To make matter worse, Sergio Perez shared a perfectly timed advert to add to the hilarious aspect of the explanations.

First, let’s talk about one of the reasons Red Bull gave for overshooting the 2021 budget. According to reports, Red Bull’s overspending was between 1-2 million dollars over the $145 million limit. Now, anything under 7.5% comes under the minor overspending category, according to FIA. However, every dollar extra calls for a justification.

As per reports, Daily free lunch for many of their 1,000 members of staff at their Milton Keynes headquarters is a key contributor to Red Bull’s overspent. This is where Perez’s advert adds a comedic touch to the justification.

The Mexican shared an ad on his social media for a company called Cash App. Cash App is a digital payment and service app. To portray the app’s functionality, they made an ad showcasing a table full of Red Bull men, including Checo, enjoying dinner.

The tweet went out with the caption, “The victory dinner after the victory lap #thatsmoney @CashApp”
