Lawson was making an attempt to defend from Perez early within the race and was pushed extensive at Flip 4, rejoining on the within of Flip 5 to try to struggle again. The pair had mild contact because the struggle continued for 2 extra corners earlier than Lawson remained forward, with each drivers buying and selling insults on workforce radio and the RB driver gesturing at Perez when he overtook him once more later within the race.
“I don’t have any relationship with him,” Perez stated. “I believe the way in which he has come to System 1, I don’t suppose he has the appropriate perspective for it. He must be a bit extra humble, you already know. When a two-time world champion [Fernando Alonso] was saying issues final weekend, he fully ignored him.
“Whenever you come to System 1, you’re clearly very hungry and so forth, however you must be respectful off-track and on-track. I don’t suppose he’s exhibiting the appropriate perspective to indicate tempo for himself, as a result of I believe he’s an important driver and I hope for him that he can step again and study from it.”
With the stewards investigating their run-in however not taking any additional motion, Perez claims Lawson additionally isn’t getting the appropriate message about his method to racing.
“It was wanting good. We have been already as much as P10. I had a maneuver into Flip 4, after which he was exterior the monitor and simply got here straight [back on], like if there was no automobile. I believe he may have prevented the incident however he simply went again. Fortunately I noticed him and I opened up room, in any other case it might have been an enormous crash.
“There was no want; we broken each of our races. I believe it was just a bit bit an excessive amount of, however I don’t suppose it’s his fault. He’s not getting any penalties as effectively. He did the identical with Fernando, with Franco [Colapinto] in the long run. There aren’t any penalties or none of his fault as effectively.
“I believe he’s simply racing everybody uncontrolled in the meanwhile.”
Colapinto was the driving force who acquired a penalty for his collision with Lawson, with the stewards deeming the Williams didn’t go away room on the surface of Flip 2. Nonetheless, Perez believes Pink Bull wants to talk to Lawson about his driving.
“I believe you see these children, clearly very hungry for it, they usually’re actually passionate and it’s nice to see,” he began. “They’ve nice expertise, however I’m simply speaking about Lawson on this regard — I believe in his two first grands prix he has had too many incidents and I believe there might be some extent the place it will probably price him an excessive amount of, like he did this weekend.
“He has to have the appropriate perspective to say, ‘Look, I’m overdoing it slightly bit; I’ll step again and begin once more.’ It’s all the educational you must do as a teen, as a result of for those who don’t study out of your errors, System 1 is a brutal world and he may not proceed.
“In the present day it price Pink Bull Racing numerous factors, so I believe they need to communicate to him.”
