Sergio Perez will partner Nico Hulkenberg at Force India in 2014, it was announced on Thursday, replacing the team’s 2013 line-up of Paul di Resta and Adrian Sutil.
Perez joins the Silverstone-based squad from McLaren after spending just one season alongside Jenson Button before being replaced by Danish rookie Kevin Magnussen.
The 23-year-old Mexican’s arrival at Force India, which comes just over a week after Hulkenberg’s return was confirmed, ensures the team will start the season with an all-new driver pairing for the first time since 2005 when they were still known as Jordan.
Perez finished the 2013 season in 11th place in the drivers’ standings with 49 points, one position and two points behind new team mate Hulkenberg. Both drivers will embark on their fourth full season in the world championship in 2014.
