Excitement in Barcelona! Checo Pérez seeks his third victory at the Spanish Grand Prix

Emotion is in the air as we approach the next Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix, which will be held on Sunday, June 4 at the iconic Circuit de Montmeló. Barcelona will host round 7 of this championship that begins activities tomorrow morning. 

    

Among the drivers to follow, without a doubt, are the locals Alonso and Sainz, as well as Checo Pérez with the desire to close the gap with his teammate Max Verstappen. Pérez is convinced that this grand prix could be perfect to get his third victory of the season. However, history plays against him, as Verstappen achieved his first Formula 1 victory at this same circuit in 2016. Furthermore, if Mad Max achieves first place in Barcelona, he would reach a round figure of 40 victories in his career, approaching the record of the legendary Ayrton Senna.   

Max reaffirmed himself as the leader of the championship in Monaco with 144 points, followed by Checo who added nothing to his 104 points and Alonso in third place with 93.   

The confidence of Checo Pérez:   

Checo Pérez is confident and optimistic about his chances at the Spanish Grand Prix. The Mexican driver is convinced that he has the fastest car at the right time and considers that the circuit favorably suits his driving style. "I just need to make sure I have a perfect weekend from start to finish," he said.   

With two victories this season, Pérez is determined to continue adding victories and close the gap with his co-team team. All this despite Helmut Marko's comments that seem to bring them against the Mexican, forgetting that he is part of Red Bull.   

Local players:   

Fernando Alonso, the Spanish Aston Martin driver, has extensive experience at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. Throughout his career, Alonso has achieved great success on this circuit, including two victories. Alonso will be looking to impress his local fans and show that he still has what it takes to compete at the top.         

On the other hand, Carlos Sainz, a Ferrari driver, also has a special connection with the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. Sainz has had outstanding performances at this circuit in the past and is determined to get a good result in front of his home crowd.
