Sergio Perez’s [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sergio-perez/] heartfelt announcement to leave Racing Point at the end of the season was made official yesterday. Following that, Sebastian Vettel’s move to Racing Point, as expected, has been confirmed. The 33-year-old driver was closer to taking a sabbatical than buying into a project among the paddock’s teams. And now, with a drive to look forward to, he cannot wait to get started with the team. The German has signed up with the team for 2021 and beyond. A FRESH START FOR SEBASTIAN VETTEL NEXT SEASON The move has been talked about, ever since the news broke out that Ferrari will not be extending Vettel’s contract next season. His immediate response was that he wanted a drive for 2021, but at the same time, not be desperate for anything that comes across. The four-time World Champion preferred to be in a car that could, at the least, challenge for podiums. And it makes sense as well, considering it would be quite the fall in grace if he chose a team that lacks competitiveness. “Everybody at Silverstone is hugely excited by this news. Sebastian is a proven champion and brings a winning mentality that matches our own ambitions for the future as Aston Martin F1 Team. “On a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, Sebastian is one of the best in the world, and I can’t think of a better driver to help take us into this new era. He will play a significant role in taking this team to the next level,” read Otmar Szafnauer’s statement [https://www.racingpointf1.com/news/announcement-sebastian-vettel-signs-up-for-2021-and-beyond-bwt-racing-point-f1-team]. CALCULATED MOVE BY SEBASTIAN VETTEL Vettel had earlier said [https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.driver-market-sabbatical-of-no-interest-says-vettel-as-he-weighs-up-f1.dq0XdKOCcKpX9kvOQZvan.html], “If the right thing comes together and comes up, I’m willing to continue. Then I feel I have much more to give. If that’s not the case and doesn’t come together then as I said, probably time to do something else.” Vettel [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/] can now focus on spending his knowledge and energies on helping Aston Martin become a better outfit. The team certainly has a strong pairing for next season. With the mighty Seb on one side and the youthful Lance Stroll [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lance-stroll/] on the other, it will be interesting to see how the team fares with a unique dynamic like this. In fact, the kind of relationship that the two develop throughout their stay will also be a matter of keen interest. But regardless, it is set to be a wholly competitive one. 

A move to Racing Point has solidified a position for Sebastian Vettel in the
paddock, following 'Checo' Perez's intention to leave.

<h2><strong>Lance Stroll 2021: </strong><strong>Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Lance Stroll made his debut in 2017 for the Williams Formula 1 team. Initially, he was supposed to replace a retiring <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felipe_Massa">Felipe Massa</a>. However, when <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nico-rosberg/">Nico Rosberg</a> announced his shock retirement, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/valtteri-bottas/">Valtteri Bottas</a> was drafted in. As a result, Massa had to come back out of retirement and race again.

In 2017, Massa retired from F1 for good and Sergey Sirotkin took his place. Stroll had to act as the de facto team leader for his rookie teammate. It didn't help matters that the Williams was a shadow of its former self. To make matters worse, many labeled him as a pay driver.
<h2><strong>Lance Stroll: On-track Achievements</strong></h2>
Prior to F1, he was racing in Formula 3 in 2015, losing to champion Felix Rosenqvist and fellow F1 drivers Antonio Giovinazzi and Charles Leclerc. He finished 5th in the championship, racking up five podiums and a win. A year later, he went on to win the Formula 3 title, on the back of 14 wins and six podiums. He defeated Maximilian Gunther and George Russell to the title.

In his debut year in Formula One, he had a bad run initially with three retirements and three non-points finishes. Things changed in his home race in Canada with a maiden point-scoring finish of ninth. Then he stunned everyone and silenced many critics by landing on the podium in Baku, Azerbaijan. He finished the season in 12th after five more point-scoring finishes.

Sadly, 2018 was a terrible year for Williams and the Canadian. He could only muster two point-scoring finishes in Azerbaijan and Italy. Stroll ended the season in 18th.  For the 2019 F1 season, Stroll joined the newly rebranded Racing Point F1 team.

Stroll's debut season with Racing Point didn't produce any noticeable results. The Canadian struggled to keep up with seasoned teammate Sergio Perez and eventually finished the year a disappointing 15th in the Drivers' Championship- scoring a mere 21 points.

Despite a less than stellar start to his racing ventures with the Silverstone outfit, Stroll took full advantage of the team's 2020 car to show his true potential.

With the RP20 bearing a strong resemblance to the 2019 Championship winning Mercedes, Stroll has delivered commendable performaces in the 2020 season.

The young Canadian finished 11th in the Drivers' Standings of the 2020 Championship.

Stroll will drive for the Aston Martin F1 team in 2021 with Sebastian Vettel.

<h3><strong>Sebastian Vettel 2022: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h3>
Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel is a 4-time Formula One World Champion. He is among the most likable personalities on the grid. He made his Formula One debut in 2007 in a one-off appearance as a replacement for an injured <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/robert-kubica/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Robert Kubica</a>. The same year saw him join the ranks of the<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/toro-rosso/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> Toro Rosso</a> team, effectively replacing Scott Speed. In 2008, he took his first victory, which still stands as the team's only race victory. In 2009, he graduated to Red Bull F1 and stayed with the team until the end of 2014, before moving to Ferrari. His Red Bull stint saw him scale four back-to-back championships between 2010 and 2013.

Back in his Red Bull days, Sebastian Vettel's helmet game was on another level. While the FIA has repealed its controversial helmet change rule, Vettel would turn up to Grand Prix events with some of the coolest lids on the grid.

Most recently, his iconic white helmet with German stripes is easily recognizable and has become a classic helmet design on the grid.

<h3><strong>Sebastian Vettel: On-track Achievements</strong></h3>
His 2008 race victory in Monza and further progress at an early age ensured that he has a lot of records to his name. Sebastian Vettel is the youngest driver to score a pole position, a race victory, a double (pole + race), and a triple (pole + race + fastest lap). His 13 race victories in 2013 and 15 pole positions in 2011, still stand as the highest race victories and pole positions in a season, respectively.

While he holds a long list of accolades in Formula 1, Sebastian Vettel is also one of the wittiest drivers on the grid. His perfectly timed quips and witty jabs during team radio messages and interviews have become a big hit among the fans.

<h3>Sebastian Vettel: Net Worth 2022</h3>
His contract with Ferrari in 2020 put his annual <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/sebastian-vettel/#4373508e53f2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">salary</a> to $36.3 million along with bonuses, making him one of the richest drivers on the F1 grid. The length of his contract ran till the end of 2020. He's driven for two very rich teams: Red Bull with their massive budget and Ferrari with their legacy, ensuring his lifetime earnings at <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/race-car-drivers/sebastian-vettel-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">$140 million</a>.

Further, he signed a contract with Aston Martin for the 2021 season. The fact that Aston Martin is a mid-field outfit forced Vettel in obliging to a massive pay-cut. The German is reportedly receiving a salary of $15M, without bonuses. Nevertheless, Vettel is still the 5th highest <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/brettknight/2021/07/22/formula-1-highest-paid-drivers-hamilton-verstappen/?sh=e868db011828" target="_blank" rel="noopener">paid</a> driver on the grid in 2021, just behind his predecessor, Sergio Perez. As of 2022, Vettel will receive a salary of $13M from Aston Martin.
<h3><strong>Sebastian Vettel: Ferrari journey and contract</strong></h3>
However, his Ferrari stint wasn't nearly as successful. Joining the team in early 2015, Vettel was the guiding light that Ferrari needed after a dismal 2014 season. One could argue that Vettel resurrected Ferrari in the turbo-hybrid era of Formula 1.

Despite getting off to a positive start, Sebastian's Ferrari journey was full of ups and downs. He endured a difficult season in 2016 - scoring no wins and driving a car that wasn't very competitive.

However, things changed in 2017. The SF70h was more than a match for the Mercedes W08 and for the first time in the turbo-hybrid era, Ferrari could challenge Mercedes for the Championship.

While Ferrari and Vettel made good progress in the first half of 2017, the quest to end Mercedes' domination fizzled in the latter half of the season. Mercedes made a big step up in car development. Furthermore, a series of reliability issues and driver mistakes effectively ended the Scuderia's hopes of Championship that year.

But the team went back to the drawing board of developed a monster of a car for the 2018 season. The SF71h seemed destined to put an end to Mercedes's winning streak, but a sequence of driver errors meant it was not to be.

[caption id="attachment_506721" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-506721" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210107180320/GettyImages-1180720765.jpg" alt="Sebastian Vettel in Scuderia Ferrari" width="1920" height="1280" /> SUZUKA, JAPAN - OCTOBER 13: Pole position qualifier Sebastian Vettel of Germany and Ferrari celebrates in parc ferme during qualifying for the F1 Grand Prix of Japan at Suzuka Circuit on October 13, 2019 in Suzuka, Japan.

Vettel came agonizingly close to clinching his first Championship with Ferrari in 2018, but his campaign fell apart towards the end of the season.

2019 was a difficult season for the German driver. Vettel had to put up with a younger, much faster teammate in Charles Leclerc while racing in a car that was uncompetitive and unsuited to his driving style. Scoring only a single win, Sebastian ended the season fifth in the Drivers' Championship.

The equation between Vettel and teammate <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/charles-leclerc" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Charles Leclerc</a> gave the team enough trouble.

The 2020 season was put on hold due to COVID-19 but Vettel dropped a bombshell regarding his future at Ferrari. Sebastian Vettel officially announced that he and Ferrari would not be renewing their contract for 2021 and beyond. At the end of the  2020 season, Vettel and Ferrari parted ways.

Despite the failed quest with Ferrari, Vettel can look back at his time with the Reds with pride. The German currently sits third in the list of all-time wins for the Scuderia. Only behind F1 legends - Michael Schumacher and Niki Lauda. So far, Vettel has scored 57 Pole Positions and clinched 53 wins in his F1 career.

While it looked like Vettel might announce his retirement following the 2020 season, what arrived was rather a surprising announcement from the returning F1 team, Aston Martin. The British outfit announced Vettel as a part of their driver's line-up for 2021 replacing Sergio Perez.

In September 2021, Aston Martin affirmed that Vettel's contract had the option of extending his presence by another year. Hence, the team decided to stick with the German at least until the end of 2022.
<h3>Best Moments of Sebastian Vettel</h3>
<h4><strong>Foundations and Charity Work</strong></h4>
Sebastian Vettel supports two main charities, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIMfiaqeHJg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Champions for Charity</a> and <a href="https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&amp;sl=de&amp;u=https://www.unitedcharity.de/Prominente/Sebastian-Vettel&amp;prev=search&amp;pto=aue" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">United Charity</a>. His support is mainly focused on children's welfare and also sports.

Sebastian Vettel often <a href="https://www.espn.in/f1/story/_/id/26836139/ferrari-drivers-sebastian-vettel-charles-leclerc-team-cristiano-ronaldo-charity-football-match" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">competes</a> in charity football matches to raise money for various charitable organizations.

Vettel has donated to the 'Grace P Kelly Association' - a German organization that aids children affected by cancer.

In early 2019, Vettel teamed up with teammates Charles Leclerc and star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo in a charity football match for the Piedmontese Foundation for Cancer Research and for the Telethon Foundation.

Since 2020, Vettel has been working with BioBienenApfel, a company striving to raise awareness on the importance of bees' existence in the eco-system. Ahead of the Austrian GP 2021, Vettel, along with a group of kids, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-heartwarming-sebastian-vettel-comes-to-rescue-of-environment-with-bee-hotel-ahead-of-austrian-gp/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">built a hotel for bees</a> in the middle of an open field in Spielberg.

Later following the British Grand Prix, Vettel collected garbage from the stands left behind by the spectators. He further carried the waste to a waste incineration plant to raise awareness on recycling waste.

<h3>Sebastian Vettel: Personal life</h3>
Sebastian Vettel prefers keeping his personal life away from all the glitz and glamor of F1. Nobody knows a lot about his private life, but there are a few details.

The 33-year-old <a href="https://www.espn.in/f1/story/_/id/27015385/french-grand-prix-diary-kimi-wears-headphones-to-talk-people" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">married</a> his childhood friend Hanna Prater in 2019. He has 3 kids - <a href="https://www.welt.de/sport/formel1/article122767788/Sebastian-Vettel-wird-zum-ersten-Mal-Vater.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Emilie</a>, Mathilda, and a son <a href="https://f1i.com/news/362905-vettel-excused-from-media-day-following-birth-of-third-child.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">born</a> in November 2019.

The 4-time World Champion lives in a medieval-style farmhouse in Thurgau, Switzerland. Vettel isn't one to splurge on flashy mansions, but his <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/sebastian-vettel-everything-there-is-to-know-about-his-luxurious-house/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">house</a> is impressive nonetheless!

While he races some of the fastest cars on track, he prefers two wheels off the track. The German driver has an enviable vintage motorcycle collection and often arrives at circuits on one of his cool bikes. However, he also owns a very cool car collection which, funnily enough, includes a Mercedes.

<h4><strong>How to contact Sebastian Vettel</strong></h4>
Sebastian Vettel prefers staying away from the limelight and likes keeping his personal life, well, personal!

Vettel is the only driver on the 2021 grid not to have a social media account. But don't get your hopes up because the German's <a href="https://f1i.com/news/326225-vettel-reveals-why-hes-no-fan-of-social-media.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">made it clear</a> that he has no intention of joining Instagram, Twitter, or any other social network.

However, that doesn't mean Sebastian's completely disconnected from his fans. On the contrary, Vettel enjoys reading and responding to fan mail and queries.

Sebastian Vettel

Sebastian Vettel 2022: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements Ferrari&#8217;s Sebastian Vettel is a 4-time Formula One World Champion. He is among the most likable personalities on the grid. He made his Formula One debut in 2007 in a one-off appearance as a replacement for an injured Robert Kubica. The same year saw him join the ranks of the Toro Rosso team, effectively replacing Scott Speed. In 2008, he took his first victory, which still stands as the team&#8217;s only race victory. In 2009, he graduated to Red Bull F1 and stayed with the team until the end of 2014, before moving to Ferrari. His Red Bull stint saw him scale four back-to-back championships between 2010 and 2013. Back in his Red Bull days, Sebastian Vettel&#8217;s helmet game was on another level. While the FIA has repealed its controversial helmet change rule, Vettel would turn up to Grand Prix events with some of the coolest lids on the grid. Most recently, his iconic white helmet with German stripes is easily recognizable and has become a classic helmet design on the grid.

(Photo by Mark Thompson/Getty Images) Sebastian Vettel: On-track Achievements His 2008 race victory in Monza and further progress at an early age ensured that he has a lot of records to his name. Sebastian Vettel is the youngest driver to score a pole position, a race victory, a double (pole + race), and a triple (pole + race + fastest lap). His 13 race victories in 2013 and 15 pole positions in 2011, still stand as the highest race victories and pole positions in a season, respectively. While he holds a long list of accolades in Formula 1, Sebastian Vettel is also one of the wittiest drivers on the grid. His perfectly timed quips and witty jabs during team radio messages and interviews have become a big hit among the fans. READ MORE-What are the Best Quotes of Sebastian Vettel? Sebastian Vettel: Net Worth 2022 His contract with Ferrari in 2020 put his annual salary to $36.3 million along with bonuses, making him one of the richest drivers on the F1 grid. The length of his contract ran till the end of 2020. He&#8217;s driven for two very rich teams: Red Bull with their massive budget and Ferrari with their legacy, ensuring his lifetime earnings at $140 million. Further, he signed a contract with Aston Martin for the 2021 season. The fact that Aston Martin is a mid-field outfit forced Vettel in obliging to a massive pay-cut. The German is reportedly receiving a salary of $15M, without bonuses. Nevertheless, Vettel is still the 5th highest paid driver on the grid in 2021, just behind his predecessor, Sergio Perez. As of 2022, Vettel will receive a salary of $13M from Aston Martin. Sebastian Vettel: Ferrari journey and contract However, his Ferrari stint wasn&#8217;t nearly as successful. Joining the team in early 2015, Vettel was the guiding light that Ferrari needed after a dismal 2014 season. One could argue that Vettel resurrected Ferrari in the turbo-hybrid era of Formula 1. Despite getting off to a positive start, Sebastian&#8217;s Ferrari journey was full of ups and downs. He endured a difficult season in 2016 &#8211; scoring no wins and driving a car that wasn&#8217;t very competitive. However, things changed in 2017. The SF70h was more than a match for the Mercedes W08 and for the first time in the turbo-hybrid era, Ferrari could challenge Mercedes for the Championship. While Ferrari and Vettel made good progress in the first half of 2017, the quest to end Mercedes&#8217; domination fizzled in the latter half of the season. Mercedes made a big step up in car development. Furthermore, a series of reliability issues and driver mistakes effectively ended the Scuderia&#8217;s hopes of Championship that year. But the team went back to the drawing board of developed a monster of a car for the 2018 season. The SF71h seemed destined to put an end to Mercedes&#8217;s winning streak, but a sequence of driver errors meant it was not to be. SUZUKA, JAPAN &#8211; OCTOBER 13: Pole position qualifier Sebastian Vettel of Germany and Ferrari celebrates in parc ferme during qualifying for the F1 Grand Prix of Japan at Suzuka Circuit on October 13, 2019 in Suzuka, Japan. (Photo by Charles Coates/Getty Images) Vettel came agonizingly close to clinching his first Championship with Ferrari in 2018, but his campaign fell apart towards the end of the season. 2019 was a difficult season for the German driver. Vettel had to put up with a younger, much faster teammate in Charles Leclerc while racing in a car that was uncompetitive and unsuited to his driving style. Scoring only a single win, Sebastian ended the season fifth in the Drivers&#8217; Championship. The equation between Vettel and teammate Charles Leclerc gave the team enough trouble. The 2020 season was put on hold due to COVID-19 but Vettel dropped a bombshell regarding his future at Ferrari. Sebastian Vettel officially announced that he and Ferrari would not be renewing their contract for 2021 and beyond. At the end of the  2020 season, Vettel and Ferrari parted ways. Despite the failed quest with Ferrari, Vettel can look back at his time with the Reds with pride. The German currently sits third in the list of all-time wins for the Scuderia. Only behind F1 legends &#8211; Michael Schumacher and Niki Lauda. So far, Vettel has scored 57 Pole Positions and clinched 53 wins in his F1 career. While it looked like Vettel might announce his retirement following the 2020 season, what arrived was rather a surprising announcement from the returning F1 team, Aston Martin. The British outfit announced Vettel as a part of their driver&#8217;s line-up for 2021 replacing Sergio Perez. In September 2021, Aston Martin affirmed that Vettel&#8217;s contract had the option of extending his presence by another year. Hence, the team decided to stick with the German at least until the end of 2022. Best Moments of Sebastian Vettel Foundations and Charity Work Sebastian Vettel supports two main charities, Champions for Charity and United Charity. His support is mainly focused on children&#8217;s welfare and also sports. Sebastian Vettel often competes in charity football matches to raise money for various charitable organizations. Vettel has donated to the &#8216;Grace P Kelly Association&#8217; &#8211; a German organization that aids children affected by cancer. In early 2019, Vettel teamed up with teammates Charles Leclerc and star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo in a charity football match for the Piedmontese Foundation for Cancer Research and for the Telethon Foundation. Since 2020, Vettel has been working with BioBienenApfel, a company striving to raise awareness on the importance of bees&#8217; existence in the eco-system. Ahead of the Austrian GP 2021, Vettel, along with a group of kids, built a hotel for bees in the middle of an open field in Spielberg. Later following the British Grand Prix, Vettel collected garbage from the stands left behind by the spectators. He further carried the waste to a waste incineration plant to raise awareness on recycling waste. Read More &#8211; Here’s How Sebastian Vettel Followed Up His Litter Collection Drive at Silverstone Sebastian Vettel: Personal life Sebastian Vettel prefers keeping his personal life away from all the glitz and glamor of F1. Nobody knows a lot about his private life, but there are a few details. The 33-year-old married his childhood friend Hanna Prater in 2019. He has 3 kids &#8211; Emilie, Mathilda, and a son born in November 2019. The 4-time World Champion lives in a medieval-style farmhouse in Thurgau, Switzerland.

How to contact Sebastian Vettel Sebastian Vettel prefers staying away from the limelight and likes keeping his personal life, well, personal! Vettel is the only driver on the 2021 grid not to have a social media account. But don&#8217;t get your hopes up because the German&#8217;s made it clear that he has no intention of joining Instagram, Twitter, or any other social network. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean Sebastian&#8217;s completely disconnected from his fans. On the contrary, Vettel enjoys reading and responding to fan mail and queries.

Sergio Perez, also known as one of the best players in Formula 1, is a member of Red Bull Racing. At the age of 34, Perez has already left an undeniable mark in the racing realm owing to his successful performances with Sauber, McLaren, Force India, and Racing Point. Regarded affectionately as Checo PÃ©rez, the F1 racer has brought much acclaim to his country, Mexico. Not only does Perez hold many impressive records owing to his talent at the race track but also stands tall as one of the highest-paid Formula 1 drivers. However, all of this did not come easy for the athlete.

Checo Perez is the youngest in his family with an elder sister, Paola, and an older brother, Antonio. It seems like race car driving is in the Perez family blood as even Antonio Perez competed in the NASCAR Mexico series before retiring. While his educational qualifications are not much known, Perez has himself stated that if not a race car driver he would have been a lawyer.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Sergio Perez's Wife and Children</strong></h2>
A beyond-the-track look at the athlete's life indicates that a major reason behind his success comes from his supportive family. Sergio Perez had been in a long-term relationship with Carola Martinez from his homeland, Guadalajara, before tying the knot with her in 2018. The F1 driver proposed to his now-wife in 2017, however, that was not the only significant development in his personal life that year. Sergio Perez welcomed his first child, Sergio Jr, in December of 2017. Since then, Sergio Perez and Carola Martinez have had three more kids. Although the name of his youngest child is yet to be announced to the public, his kids are named Sergio Jr, Carlota, and Emilio<strong>.</strong>

In 2007, during his time in Britain, Perez bagged the national championship at the junior level. Sergio Perez debuted in Formula One in 2011 with the Sauber team. The Mexican's signing was a result ofÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/sauber/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Sauber</a> announcing a partnership with telecommunications company Telmex. Up until 2012, he was a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy.

He stayed with the Swiss outfit for two years and jumped ship toÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mclaren/" target="_self" rel="noopener">McLaren</a>Â in 2013, but suffered a very poor run that year.

<img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-3245111776" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2020-12-10T121951Z_2118410278_RC2CKK9GKDHM_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-ABUDHABI.jpg" />

A year later, he moved to Force India and stayed there until this season. He partnered Nico Hulkenberg for three years until the latter left for Renault. He then partnered Esteban Ocon for two years before Ocon was ousted in favor of Lance Stroll for 2019. Hardly 2 seasons later, it was Perez's turn to leave the team, but, only this time, the Mexican had an offer from one of the top-field teams, Red Bull.

Sergio Perez's stint at Red Bull has been an absolute delight to watch, arguably one of the best decisions of his career.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sergio Perezâ€™s Contracts</b></h2>
Throughout his illustrious career, Sergio Perez's Red Bull contract seems to have taken the top spot in terms of the athlete's performance, achievement, and net worth. However, as 2024 rolls around, the contract's end is approaching closer. And while he has had some highs during his time with Red Bull, his lows were also unmissable. There are talks that the racer will sign a two-year extension with the team but for now nothing is certain.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sergio Perezâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements</b></h2>
A huge sum of Sergio Perez's million-dollar net worth comes from his partnerships and endorsements. Being arguably the most successful Mexican racer, Perez has bagged massive deals with brands from his home country. The F1 racer booked himself a $1.3 Million by becoming a Jalisco brand ambassador. Other brands that have found a spot on his suits are Telcel, Telmex, Xades, Tag Heuer, Kavak, Banorte and Unifin.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Sergio Perez's Investments</h2>
"Checo" Perez not only knows how to make money but also how to effectively grow it, as evidenced by his smart investment. Although Perez does not have a long list of investments, unlike his counterparts, he has made some great choices. The most notable investment by the F1 racer is in the E1 series. The world's first electric boat racing series garnered a lot of attention from athletes around the world, and Sergio Perez did not hold back and currently stands as the owner of Team Mexico.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Sergio Perez's major achievements and awards</strong></h2>
Sergio Perez scored a podium in just his second season in Formula One, in the second race of 2012. During his stint with the Woking-based outfit, he could only manage a position as high as fifth. When he moved to Force India, he scored five podiums for the Indian outfit.

His highest position in the Drivers' Championship was seventh in 2016 and 2017. In his partnership with Hulkenberg, the two managed to help the team finish fourth in the 2016 Championship. Perez and Ocon repeated the feat once again in 2017.

Perez out qualified and outpaced his younger teammate Stroll to finish 1oth in the Drivers' Standings, scoring a respectable 52 points in a car that wasn't very competitive.

However, Perez faced a much stronger challenge from the Canadian in 2020. With the RP20 being strongly influenced by the 2019 championship-winning car, Racing Point zoomed ahead of the midfield with Perez and Stroll scoring points consistently.

The Mexican was forced to miss two races this season due to COVID-19 but bounced back with a stellar performance at the Spanish Grand Prix. Perez won his first race at the Sakhir Grand Prix.

On the first lap, Perez was hit by Leclerc and went from 2nd place to 18th and last. On lap 64, he took the lead and won the race ahead of Esteban Ocon and teammate Stroll. This was the first win for a Mexican driver since Pedro Rodriguez won the 1970 Belgian Grand Prix 50 years prior.

Perez finished fourth in the Drivers' Championship in the 2020 season, his best-ever seasonal finish in F1. Perez is also in an intense battle for P3 in the championship along with Valtteri Bottas and Lando Norris in 2021. However, the 'second driver curse' has often haunted Perez, resisting him from securing decent race finishes apart from the back-to-back strong points haul in France, Azerbaijan, and Monaco.

Perez scored his first Red Bull podium at Le Castellet followed by his first Red Bull win at Baku and an incredible comeback drive in Monaco. So far, Sergio Perez has <b>won 6 Grand Prix races and scored 35 podium finishes</b>, and is on track to break many more records.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Sergio Perez Charity and Foundation</strong></h2>
Back in 2012, Perez and his family founded the 'Checo Perez Foundation'. Coming from a humble background in Mexico, Sergio Perez seized the opportunity to help the needy back in his homeland as soon as he had the means. While earlier, it was mostly dedicated to providing basic support and shelter to children who had been abandoned, in recent years the foundation has done impressive work in the mental wellness realm.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Sergio Perez's Car Collection</h2>
When he is not busy breaking records on the track, Sergio Perez dedicates his time to amping up his already million-dollar car collection. His garage consists of a Bugatti Chiron, McLaren 720S, Mercedes Benz AMG, Porsche Panamera, and BMW X7. Perez has one of the most impressive car collection among the F1 drivers.

With the RP20 being strongly influenced by the 2019 championship-winning car, Racing Point zoomed ahead of the midfield with Perez and Stroll scoring points consistently. The Mexican was forced to miss two races this season due to COVID-19 but bounced back with a stellar performance at the Spanish Grand Prix. Perez won his first race at the Sakhir Grand Prix. On the first lap, Perez was hit by Leclerc and went from 2nd place to 18th and last. On lap 64, he took the lead and won the race ahead of Esteban Ocon and teammate Stroll. This was the first win for a Mexican driver since Pedro Rodriguez won the 1970 Belgian Grand Prix 50 years prior. Perez finished fourth in the Drivers&#8217; Championship in the 2020 season, his best-ever seasonal finish in F1. Perez is also in an intense battle for P3 in the championship along with Valtteri Bottas and Lando Norris in 2021. However, the &#8216;second driver curse&#8217; has often haunted Perez, resisting him from securing decent race finishes apart from the back-to-back strong points haul in France, Azerbaijan, and Monaco. Perez scored his first Red Bull podium at Le Castellet followed by his first Red Bull win at Baku and an incredible comeback drive in Monaco. So far, Sergio Perez has won 6 Grand Prix races and scored 35 podium finishes, and is on track to break many more records. Sergio Perez Charity and Foundation Back in 2012, Perez and his family founded the &#8216;Checo Perez Foundation&#8217;. Coming from a humble background in Mexico, Sergio Perez seized the opportunity to help the needy back in his homeland as soon as he had the means. While earlier, it was mostly dedicated to providing basic support and shelter to children who had been abandoned, in recent years the foundation has done impressive work in the mental wellness realm. Sergio Perez&#8217;s Car Collection When he is not busy breaking records on the track, Sergio Perez dedicates his time to amping up his already million-dollar car collection. His garage consists of a Bugatti Chiron, McLaren 720S, Mercedes Benz AMG, Porsche Panamera, and BMW X7. Perez has one of the most impressive car collection among the F1 drivers. &nbsp;  Name Sergio Michel PÃ©rez Mendoza  Born 26 January 1990  Place of Birth Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico  Nationality Mexican  Education Master&#8217;s Graduate from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse  Parents Antonio PÃ©rez Garibay, MarilÃº Mendoza de PÃ©rez  Height 5 ft 8 in (1.73 m)  Weight 63 kg  Wife Carola Martinez  Kids Sergio Jr, Carlota, and Emilio  Social Media Instagram,Â Facebook  &nbsp;
