Mexican driver Sergio 'Checo' Pérez of Red Bull expressed his frustration and disappointment after being involved in an early race collision with the two Haas cars during the Monaco Grand Prix, the eighth round of the Formula 1 World Championship. Pérez, who won the race in Monaco two years ago, was particularly upset that the incident was not investigated by the race stewards.

During the climb from Sainte Dévote to Casino Square, Danish driver Kevin Magnussen collided with the rear of Pérez's RB20, which then hit the Haas of German driver Nico Hülkenberg. Pérez's car was severely damaged in the crash, but he managed to exit the vehicle safely, as did Magnussen and Hülkenberg. All three drivers were subsequently forced to retire from the race.

"We had a lot of damage, it was a completely unnecessary incident," stated the Mexican driver, who has six career victories and 39 podium finishes in F1.

"I am disappointed that the accident was not even investigated because my car was completely wrecked; it has numerous damages," Pérez emphasized.

"This situation is frustrating. But I trust my team, and I know we will come back stronger," 'Checo' added on Sunday after his early exit from the Monaco Grand Prix.
