What is Sergio Perez's driving style?
It is a Smooth Understeer driving style. This is why.
Sergio Perez is well-known for his preference towards understeery car setups. However, he has had to adapt to the strongly oversteery Red Bull car. The Red Bull has a strong front end, which allows for rotation without the driver having to induce it as much. This means that drivers have to be confident with the oversteery car and use sensitive, precise inputs. However, if the oversteery setup isn’t mastered, the driver can risk over-rotating the car, scrubbing the rears and risking a crash. He said in an interview that the RB19 “didn't really suit me”, which left him to “work harder” to keep up with Verstappen.
