Red Bull driver Sergio Perez suggested that uncertainty has always been a factor in F1, which makes it different from other sports. The Mexican driver believes the complicated nature of the sport makes it difficult for stewards to make decisions.
Describing the difference between F1 and other sports, Perez said:
“It’s not like football where everything is a lot clearer. Here, every incident is very different and it’s very hard for the stewards to make decisions. But as long as we can have consistency within the stewards to have them more consistently in the races, the same people.”
Demanding consistency in stewarding races, the 32-year-old insisted that supervizing F1 races was very different from other sports. Suggesting the same stewards for every race instead of rotating stewards, Perez felt F1 as a sport was too complex to make refereeing easy.
Describing F1 as less straightforward than others, the Red Bull driver said:
“We also have to support the new race director that comes in. It always takes time. It’s in the nature of our sport. It’s always a debate, it’s not as straightforward as other sports.”
Blaming a lot of the stewarding problems for the uncertainty in F1, Perez described the reason for the problem being the nature of the sport. Reiterating the importance of supporting the new FIA race director, the Mexican believes the changes will take time and there will always be debate and discussion over issues like these.
