Perez ‘ecstatic’ with podium finish
Sergio Pérez has described his podium finish at the Russian Grand Prix as “amazing”.
The Force India driver was in third place for the closing stages, but was overtaken by the quicker Valtteri Bottas and Kimi Raikkonen.
However, Raikkonen crashed into the Williams driver, allowing Perez to sneak back through on the final lap.
He said: "It's just feels great to be back. One lap before the end it seemed like everything went away from us. I was very unhappy with myself but in the end I thought ''I gave it all".
“I did plenty of laps with my tyres and had massive degradation. On the last lap when it came it was just amazing."
The result in Russia was Perez’s first podium since Bahrain 2014.
