Checo balancing his family life with the highly demanding sport that F1 is, whether it be intense preparations, or time-consuming media commitments, is just so remarkable 💛💛

The mirror selfie in question is the one from the gym the Red Bull man posted on his Instagram handle. This showcases how highly demanding a sport, Formula 1, is. And the need for the drivers to stay fit throughout the year even before the birth of your third child, as showcased here by Sergio. But all jokes aside, this is the level of incredible dedication and discipline that is required to compete in Formula 1.

The fact surprised some fans Perez is already a father of three but some applauded the timing of things.

The timing factor came in as this was a non-race weekend and Perez could be there for the birth of his child. However, if the birth was a few days later, Perez would’ve missed the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix. But that can still be a possibility if Sergio spends more time with his family and his newborn.
Official news is yet to come out of Red Bull sources on if he will race this weekend. But we all wish Perez congratulations on the birth of his third child.
