Perez closing in on new Racing Point deal
BUDAPEST, Hungary - Mexico's Sergio Perez is confident of securing a new long-term deal to keep him at Racing Point beyond 2019.
Perez has been at the team since 2014, when it was called Force India. He played a key role in the process which saw the team saved from the brink of closure last year before being taken over by a consortium led by Lawrence Stroll, father of Perez's teammate Lance.
"I think things are settling down, my priority will be to continue with the team," Perez said when asked about his intentions. "[The deal is] not done yet. We are finalising it.
