Sergio Checo Pérez dominated in Saudi Arabia and won his fifth Formula 1 race on Sunday in the second race of the 2023 season, but, although it was a joy for Mexican fans, others, like Max Verstappen's dad, were not very happy.
After the final result at the Jeddah circuit, Jos, who was a driver in the Grand Circus and has spoken out against the Mexican in the past, appeared very indifferent and displeased with the Aztec's victory.

After seeing the checkered flag at the end of the race, Checo approached the mechanics of the Toro Rosso to celebrate the victory with his team, but among the crowd was his teammate's father, who didn't seem very happy and ended up ignoring the Mexican.
The moment quickly went viral and the attitude of the former driver, who is in his son's garage at each race of the season, has been criticized.

Max finished in second place in the Grand Prix, which was a great comeback from starting 15th after issues with his car in qualifying, but he was also not very satisfied.
Where is Checo Pérez currently in the standings after winning the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix?
Sergio Pérez bolstered the good start of the Red Bull team in the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix, showing the dominance the team can have this year.
After his fifth victory in Formula 1, Checo has 43 points in the season, while Mad Max, who put on a great race with a 13-position comeback, only managed to reach 44 points with the checkered flag, so the Mexican is in second place in the championship.
