Sahara Force India has announced the signing of Sergio Perez as their second driver for the 2014 Formula One season and beyond.
The 23-year-old Mexican joins Nico Hulkenberg, who was confirmed earlier this year, which means Force India has a 100 percent new driver lineup. Last season, the Silverstone-based team was represented by Paul di Resta and Adrian Sutil on the grid.
Sergio Perez joined Formula One in 2011, scoring three podiums and 129 points for Sauber F1 and McLaren Mercedes.
"It's great to announce my new team as Sahara Force India. Coming here was always my first choice and I'm really happy everything has now been confirmed. I want to say thank you to Vijay and the whole team for giving me the opportunity. This is a young team with a lot of determination and they've produced competitive cars for the last few years. It's all change for next season with the new regulations, but I already have a good feeling about 2014. My plan now is to visit the factory and get to know everyone in the team,” said Perez.
