Sergio Pérez is out from Red Bull’s Formula 1 team after a rough season that saw him finish a disappointing eighth in the driver’s standings and leaving Red Bull third in the constructor standings.

With reports that Liam Lawson will step up and take over the second spot, that ends speculation about who will race alongside defending champion Max Verstappen.

Speaking of Verstappen, he did something classy for Pérez, sending a sweet message with the news breaking on Wednesday: “It's been an absolute pleasure driving alongside you. We've had some amazing moments together that I'll always remember. Thank you, Checo!”

Classy!
