Perez believes Racing Point are one of the few teams to make "real progress"

Sergio Perez believes Racing Point are one of the few Formula 1 team to have made "real progress" through the winter break. Ahead of pre-season testing which starts on Wednesday, Perez explains how the team are seeing the fruit from Lawerence Stroll's investments.

“The team has changed a lot. We have grown significantly since the beginning and I think we can be very proud of what we have managed to achieve. I think we’re one of the few teams that is going through a big change and making real progress. That’s very important for us – to show that we are on the right track," Perez explained.

Otmar Szafnauer reported that the factory is "buzzing" to get the new car on the track. Long-term Driver Perez insists everyone has been flat-out trying to find the improvements required to challenge the like of Renault and McLaren.

"Everyone has been working flat out and to have stability leads to an outstanding atmosphere within the team. I think the best is yet to come," he added.
