Sergio Pérez’s career with Red Bull Racing has come to an end after a disastrous year for him. His future was decided at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, despite being registered by the team to race next year. However, his retirement in the final circuit of the season sealed the deal.

Following this development, there is no official figure regarding what ‘Checo’ will receive for his exit from Red Bull. However, Nico Rosberg mentioned in an interview with Sky Sports that the Mexican driver could receive 16 million euros ($16.5 million), based on figures that have been seen in recent years.

“As a minimum, Sergio Pérez wants his money, so he’s not going to leave easily, and I think there are some legal discussions happening right now. Sergio Pérez has been one of the mysteries of recent times, how he could lose his form so extremely,” Rosberg stated.
