Racing Point F1 boss Otmar Szafnauer insists the team had no issue with the two-day trip Sergio Perez took to Mexico before the positive test which sidelined him for the British Grand Prix.
Racing Point has called on Nico Hulkenberg to replace Perez this weekend after the Mexican contracted the virus. On Friday, Perez revealed he had gone home to Mexico to see his mother after she left a stint in hospital.
Szafnauer dismissed the suggestion Perez made the trip without consent of the team, saying it was nothing out of the ordinary.
