Perez names McLaren problem

Sergio Perez was on a cooling lap at the Spa-Francorchamps track, and the Mexican had to let past the McLaren coming from behind into the famous Eau Rouge corner. After Norris flew by, Perez quickly called his team, saying: "There's a lot of grounding for Norris into Eau Rouge."

McLaren are proving to be Red Bull's biggest rivals at the moment, especially after a one-two finish at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Moreover, Max Verstappen will start the race in Belgium with a ten-place grid penalty.
