The former Formula 1 driver and current TV expert Ralf Schumacher has countered homophobic comments from the father of Red Bull driver Sergio Pérez. «I would also stand behind my son 100% and try to help. That’s what you do as a father,” wrote Schumacher, who made his homosexuality public in the summer, on social media.
As far as the style is concerned, it would be different, “but we know Mr. Pérez with all his emotions. That’s why I’m not angry with him,” Schumacher continued. From his point of view, “results on the track would be the better arguments”.

“I don’t know if he was in love with Checo.”
The brother of the Formula 1 record world champion Michael Schumacher and father of a son has repeatedly criticized the poor Sergio Pérez on the TV channel Sky in the past. Recently he even doubted whether the Mexican would end the season for the world champion racing team Max Verstappen even be allowed to finish.
Antonio Pérez Garibay commented on the constant criticism of his son in a podcast on the TV channel ESPN a week ago, but he did not mention the name Ralf Schumacher. «There is a driver who is in the Formula 1 was and is now a journalist who first explained that Checo (nickname of Sergio Pérez, editor’s note) was already out of Red Bull and came out in the weeks afterwards. I don’t know if he was in love with Checo,” said Pérez Sr.
“There are a lot of strange things,” he continued, “and you don’t know whether he is a journalist, whether he is a woman or a man,” but his word is doubted.
