## Resource

Sergio Perez is demanding urgent internal talks at Cadillac after both he and Bottas were forced out of the Austrian GP within five laps due to catastrophic brake failures — despite a promising start and strong pace. The team’s big upgrade package backfired as brakes overheated unexpectedly, catching everyone off guard. Perez blames misjudged engineering choices and growing frustration over recurring reliability issues, even as he acknowledges new teams face hurdles. Bottas confirms no warning signs emerged in practice. The driver insists this must be fixed fast — or Cadillac’s progress will stall entirely.
