Looks like I made the right decision abandoning my original caption, I doubt an obscure comedy reference would have done quite so well

Round Thirteen - Belgium

TM, the image isn't appearing properly.

 

[Touring Mars]

Sorry about that - should be working now.

 

[Pezzarinho17]

Having previously enjoyed McLaren's state of the art simulator facility, Perez was not impressed by Force India's centre.

 

[Ryk]

"...Just as I thought, no Batteries! You skinflint Vijay!"

 

[Legro]

As part of next year's contract negotiations Sergio Perez visits Sauber's brand new design centre.

 

[niky]

Twenty cans of Hype later, Sergio found himself en route to his third podium of the season.

 

[Furinkazen]

Sergio samples Max Verstappen's advanced training simulator.

 

[DK]

Sergio Perez has a go at driving robots, hoping he can make a career for himself in Robot Wars.

 

[Famine]

Force India secretly testing the FIA's next stupid plan to tackle the problem of exceeding track limits.

 

[Liquid]

When they said I'd be "hyped up" for this next event, this isn't quite what I had in mind...

 

[SVT Cobra GT]

Sergio: What the hell am I doing here?

 

[Jimlaad43]

Sergio: Nico gets to do Le Mans and I'm stuck doing this?

 

[Touring Mars]

Perez misinterprets the new rules regarding radio communications

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Maybe it was a month without racing that did it. Maybe it was one too many cans of Hype. Or maybe it was the exhaustion of constantly answering questions about his future - but between the black-and-yellow tape and the R shape of the circuit, Sergio Pérez was sure that someone was sending him subliminal messages.​

 

[GTP_Ingram]

After studying Pirelli's latest model, Perez isn't convinced that the best solution to potential tyre failures is to carry an extra pair on the back of the car.​

 

[Flex0r]

​

Little does Sergio know that he is secretly testing the new RC controls, next year his job will be outsourced to India and he'll be replaced by a guy named Sanjay.
