Red Bull have been told to find Max Verstappen a new partner with Sergio Perez still struggling alongside the Dutchman.
Former driver Marc Surer believes half the current grid would perform better than Perez, in a brutal takedown of the Mexican.
Surer told Motorsport-Total: “Any driver can deliver the performance that Sergio Perez does. I would have done something about it.
“I’m just going to say that half the field in Formula One would probably perform better, so why not take a risk and put another driver in the car?
“If the car is easier to drive, yes, Perez is someone who can beat Max. He is someone who can handle an understeering car very well.”
