Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez have become one of the most formidable driver pairings in F1 this season. Both drivers are aggressive and push each other to the limit on the track. At the same time, they share a very respectful and friendly relationship off the track.
This was once again evident in their recent Lad Bible interview. During the interview, Verstappen revealed Checo is much better than him at karaoke.

“He has a voice of an angel,” said Verstappen.
“I’m really bad. You must be totally sh*t,” replied Perez.
“You should hear him sing, he’s amazing,” pushed the world champion.
“I will only do it once when I have a couple of drinks. I enjoy it actually, but I know that I’m terrible at it,” said the Mexican driver.
“No, he’s very good. He’s just being shy. I mean, I’ve seen him in Tokyo. It’s impressive,” Verstappen mentioned hilariously.
” I’m sure you can’t remember that one,” said Perez jokingly.
“Can you?” concluded Verstappen.

“Max is very good. He is a very complete driver. I think without a doubt one of the best in the history of Formula 1, if not the best for everything, because of how he has been educated from the beginning.
He has things that no other driver in Formula 1 has: the ability to be on the limit from Practice 1 to the end that no other driver in Formula 1 has, without a doubt,” said Perez to Fox Sports.
