Hamilton believes the Red Bull driver will rediscover some of that performance in front of his home fans this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think he has great support around him, he takes care of himself very well. I was very excited for him at the <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/start\/\"   title=\"start\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">start<\/a> of the season because he was driving so well,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI even think at one point he led the drivers&#8217; championship, and I thought &#8216;we&#8217;re finally seeing the best of Checo,&#8217; but it&#8217;s a very long year and a very long season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a very demanding sport, but what I can highlight the most about P\u00e9rez is that he always recovers, gets back up and keeps trying. What I can assure you is that Mexico will show up this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I was at Silverstone [Hamilton&#8217;s own home track]I was very motivated, and it will definitely be something that happens to him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lewis Hamilton: Red Bull not helping Sergio Perez\u060c Laurence Edmondson, F1 editorOctober 27, 2023, 8:19 p.m. Close \u2022 Joined ESPN in 2009\u2022 F1 journalist accredited by the FIA \u200b\u200bsince 2011 MEXICO CITY &#8211; Lewis Hamilton believes Sergio P\u00e9rez is not getting the support he needs at Red Bull, saying he would find a similar situation [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5365,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2900,1893,3647,1892,2899,2018,2898],"class_list":["post-5364","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-sports","tag-bull","tag-hamilton","tag-helping","tag-lewis","tag-perez","tag-red","tag-sergio"],"blocksy_meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5364","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5364"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5364\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5366,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5364\/revisions\/5366"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5365"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5364"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5364"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5364"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
