WATCH: Sergio Perez’s Rallying Cry for Red Bull to Beat Mercedes F1 After Qualifying Debacle in Hungary

After an action-packed race at Silverstone concludes, all the attention turns towards the Hungarian GP. Here the arch-rivals in Mercedes and Red Bull vie for supremacy in the constructor’s championship. Both the Red Bulls will start from the second row, right behind the first-row lockout by the Silver Arrows.

Chiefly, both the RB16B had the opportunity for late improvements to finish ahead of Mercedes. However, after the second and final Q3 runs, both Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen came up from their garages. They were just behind Lewis Hamilton who was on the provisional pole. The Knight drove slowly in the pit lane and then right before the final warm-up corner in order to deny both the Red Bulls to post flying laps.

Perez doesn’t blame Lewis Hamilton for missing the chequered flags during qualifying

Sergio Perez doesn’t criticize Lewis Hamilton for missing his final qualifying run. However, the Mexican blames himself for starting his last run behind every car on the grid.

“I haven’t looked in detail, but to be honest, I think Lewis had a sensible gap to Bottas, who was ahead of him. Something must have happened, someone had dropped back massively from Gasly I think, and I don’t think [it was] towards the end,” said Sergio Perez.

“I think [Hamilton] had a normal gap, I just paid the price by being the last car of the train,” added the Mexican.
