Sergio Perez with his trophy after winning in Baku yesterday

Sergio Perez won Sunday’s Azerbaijan GP with teammate Max Verstappen in second to ram home Red Bull’s supremacy over the rest of the Formula One grid. Ferrari’s pole-sitter Charles Leclerc completed the podium, a respectable third. 

“Vamos!” exclaimed the Mexican on the team radio after making it a hugely profitable weekend in Baku where he also claimed Saturday’s sprint race. Red Bull boss Christian Horner acknowledged Perez’s “sensational weekend”. He added: “He’s always been outstanding on this track, I don’t know what it is about Azerbaijan, but he absolutely excels here.”
