Formula 1 driver Sergio Pérez will finish in the Racing Point stable after this season. The Mexican rider announced it on social networks. He further supported the speculation that the four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel from Ferrari is heading to the team from Silverston, which will change its name to Aston Martin.

Pérez has been with the Racing Point team, formerly racing under the name Force India, for seven years. “Everything in life has a beginning and an end. And after seven years together, my time with the team will end after this season,” wrote Pérez, who joined Force India in 2014 after one season in McLaren.
In 2019, he extended the contract with the team for three years, a chance to get Vettel, who will not get a new contract for Ferrari next season, but the team management apparently forced the plans to change plans. Pérez has no idea about his future yet. “I have no Plan B,” he wrote.

But he would like to stay in Formula 1. According to some speculations, he could get a place with the Alfa Romeo or Haas teams, which have not yet confirmed the drivers for 2021.
