Red Bull boss Christian Horner hinted that Sergio Perez’s future with the team may be in doubt, but the Mexican driver remains confident that he’ll be racing next year.

After Perez’s last-place finish at Sunday’s Mexico City Grand Prix, Horner told reporters, “As a team, we need to have both cars scoring points and that’s the nature of F1. I think we’ve done everything that we can to support Checo, and we’ll continue to do so in Brazil next weekend, but there comes a point in time that you can only do so much.”

When asked about Horner’s remarks, Perez appeared to brush them off. “It’s just rumors, at the end of the day,” he said, per Formula1.com. “You will see me in Vegas, you will see me next year. I’m not the one that worries about it.”
