Horner lets slip details about Perez’s new Red Bull F1 contract (www.motorsportweek.com)

Not only did the Red Bull Team Principal say in the official announcement that “Now is an important time to confirm our line-up for 2025,” but his further comments to Viaplay clarified the nature of the contract.

“Well, 1+1=2, so it’s a two-year contract,” Horner said.

“As with any contract, there’s a lot in it, but that’s, of course, between the driver and the team.”

With Perez’s extension coming amid a bad run of form, which continued post-announcement with a Q1 exit and DNF in Canada, he must turn his fortunes around to ensure his 2026 season in Red Bull colours comes to fruition.

So does that mean they can kick him out after the first year if he doesn't get his shit together?

Yes. I think they're keeping him around because he doesn't get in Max's way, but he's going to start costing the team a lot of points if he's this consistently bad.
