After much speculation, Sergio "Checo" Perez has confirmed his departure from the Red Bull Racing team, effectively ending his 13-year career in Formula 1. As every other team has finalized their driver pairings for the 2025 season, it seems unlikely that the Guadalajara-born racer will secure another F1 seat. Despite this, Perez's impressive statistics including six wins, 39 podium finishes, and 1638 career points solidify him as Mexico's most decorated driver. From a young age, motorsports were in the Perez family's blood and Checo quickly rose through the ranks to become a standout contender in the world of motor racing.
After four successful seasons, Red Bull Racing and Mexican driver Sergio Pérez have announced their separation for the 2025 Formula 1 season. The 34-year-old driver, whose passion for racing was sparked by his father, has built a successful career in F1, becoming one of the most accomplished racers from Latin America. With an estimated net worth of $50 million, Pérez's earnings have been bolstered by race victories, podium finishes, and numerous endorsements throughout his career.
