00:01Hi, I'm Sergio Perez. I drive for Force India.
00:04I've been here eight years in Formula One.
00:07I'm 28 years old.
00:12F1 was always my dream,
00:14to race with the best drivers in the world.
00:17I was always racing in Mexico,
00:20and I never thought that an opportunity to race in Europe
00:23was going to come up.
00:24It was always very expensive,
00:26so we had to find sponsors.
00:28Carlos Lim is one of the richest guys in the world.
00:33I remember calling him all the time when I was 14 years old
00:36to give me an opportunity.
00:40We started together the dream of making it into Formula One.
00:45The career that I have,
00:46it's very much linked to our decisions we took together.
00:51Sergio's always had a very strong hand at Force India
00:54because he was the money guy.
00:56He brought big sponsorship from Mexico with him,
00:58but now there's a bigger fish,
00:59and that bigger fish is Laurence Stroll.
01:01So Sergio's not King of the Hill anymore.
01:03It's anyone's guess at the moment who gets that seat.
01:08Esteban and Sergio.
01:11I don't think they're on each other's Christmas card list.
01:14I think it's fair to say that.
01:15Formula One is massively competitive,
01:23but the situation with Ocon and Perez in 2017 went beyond the point
01:28that I think any of us thought that it would.
01:30You've got to understand the psychology and the dynamics of the team and how that worked.
01:40You know, Esteban had to quickly make a name for himself.
01:43He was a rookie.
01:45Sergio, he had to assert himself as the driver that was with the team the longest.
01:51This is two teammates scrapping away here.
01:57Ocon's going to go for it again, trying to get past Perez.
