The Mexican Sergio Perez declared this Wednesday that the Latin American youth who want to reach and stand out in the highest category of motorsport have to make a lot of effort and perform more sacrifices than the Europeans.
Czechwho made his F1 debut in 2011 with the team Sauberis the only Latin American currently competing in the highest category and the first Mexican to win the constructors’ championship. Perez Mendoza commented.

There is very good talent in my country and throughout Latin America, but it is a sport where there are not many opportunities, everything will depend on how hard they fight for their dreams. I think we are living in the best era of motorsport because better and well-prepared drivers are arriving every time, that’s why we need the new generations to give everything.
The 32-year-old from Guadalajara, who will seek this Sunday to conquer the Big prize from Mexico, pointed out that he is willing to support the new generations of national pilots so that the place he leaves when he retires is not left empty.
I am aware that the end is getting closer, but right now I feel very excited about my team. I am happy to support the next talent to open the doors for him, because it would be a shame that the day he is not here and there is no one else, everything we have built is lost.
