Perez foresees ‘breaking all lap records’ when racing resumes

Racing Point’s Sergio Perez expects to be crushing lap records when the 2020 F1 season gets underway such is the amazing speed of this year’s cars.

Valtteri Bottas’ fastest lap at the Circuit de Catalunya during pre-season testing was just a few tenths shy of his 2019 Spanish Grand Prix pole time, a performance that pointed to significant gains moving forward.

Alas, the season is at a standstill, but when the action resumes, hopefully sooner rather than later, Perez is confident that all records will be shattered.

“We are driving the fastest cars in the history of Formula 1. You cannot imagine the speeds that we do in fast corners,” Perez told the official Formula 1 website from his Mexican lockdown home in Punta Mita.

“It’s nothing close to previous years. The qualifying laps are going to be amazing. We are going to be breaking all lap records this year with the generation of cars we have, they’re simply the best cars.”
