Sergio Perez, nicknamed the 'Mexican Minister of Defence' by fans for his aggressive defending, is being criticised after ignoring blue flags and holding up Charles Leclerc during a Formula 1 race, costing the Ferrari driver time in his fight with Max Verstappen. Fans are mocking the incident and debating whether Perez deliberately slowed his former teammate to aid Red Bull.
Why now: Perez's defending in a recent race reignited debate among F1 fans about blue flag rules and team dynamics.
