yet, but he has presented a good first impression to the team according to sporting director Sam Michael. Perez arrived at team headquarters this week to begin preparing for the 2013 season. 

"So far Checo has come across as a really great guy. He is modest and respectful of what he has to achieve, but also how much he needs to learn from his teammate who is a world champion.

"At the same time he has got high confidence and a strong ego - and all winners have that. It is a matter of having a great balance, and Checo has a great balance between those two qualities," said Michael.

Michael said that Perez has been asking a lot of questions, which is the sign of a driver who wants to be there and wants to win.
