"When you have these back-to-back races, I feel like sometimes there is not enough time to really go through it all. So, I felt like we really had to take a bit of time to make sure that we understood which way we were going.

"Obviously, we had a deficit within the car setup that we were playing around [with] weekend by weekend and we were just not able to progress through it.

"But once we managed to get on top of that, we understood a lot of things that we were trying to compensate for. And that just basically meant that we were not just not doing things right.

Is this another Red Bull driver (after Albon) that is basically coming out and saying there's no chance if the team tailor for Max's success and nothing else. ๐Ÿค”

Firstly Perez never says this in the article. Secondly not only people who are at red bull but even people who have left red bull have confirmed that the car is never built for a particular driver. Instead, RB develops the car in a way that makes it faster and that just happens to be a oversteery car. Max is able to live with it and hence is able to extract the performance. If RB had 2 Sergio's they would have needed to make a fundamentally slower car because Perez would be able to extract the max from that car and not to able to do the same with a oversteery car. In that scenario, the car would seem slower than it actually is due to Perez's limitation. Kind of like a CPU bottleneck (Perez) masking the true performance of the GPU(car)
