“I think he’s already under press𓆉ure,” Hill told the about Perez before Silverstone. 

“They cannot afford to♚ have a car that good and n✱ot have two cars right up there for the championship.

“Possibly Lando. He’s still got a few more years l🎶eft at McLaren. 

“I w𒅌as surprised when he signed such a long-term deal [until end of 2025]. It’s a long time, I’d have done three yearꦡs tops.

“If you’re that conf🐼ident in yourself, you need to🐬 be able to move when the time is right.”
