Loving post about Sergio Perez goes wrong with some followers
F1 News
A post on social media undoubtedly meant as a positive has gone wrong with some of Red Bull Racing's supporters. The Austrian team posted two pictures, one of Max Verstappen and one of Sergio Perez, accompanied by the text: "The lion and the friendly dog."

Some Red Bull Racing followers mistakenly thought that the team called Perez 'a dog', which could be taken negatively. In reality, the appellation comes from Perez himself. The latter was recently asked which animal he would be associated with, if Max Verstappen is associated with a lion. After some thought, Perez said: a dog.
The proof can be seen in the video below:
