Red Bull Racing driver Sergio Perez has praised the impact of American racer Colton Herta but insists he will have no influence over the selection of his team-mate for the 2027 Cadillac Formula 1 entry.
Perez, who has been linked with a move to the new Cadillac team set to join the grid in 2027, acknowledged Herta's strong performances in IndyCar but made clear that driver decisions rest with team management.
The Mexican driver's comments come amid ongoing speculation about the Cadillac F1 project's driver lineup, with Herta considered a leading candidate for one of the seats given his American nationality and open-wheel experience.
