Checo Pérez hace rugir su monoplaza en el Show Run en Reforma, CDMX

Sergio "Checo" Pérez turns tight circles on Paseo de la Reforma, leaving tire smoke above the asphalt as spectators crowd around the demonstration route. For a moment, the reporter stops talking and lets the engine supply the soundtrack.

Mexico's NMás news channel captures the exhibition from street level and above, with aerial shots showing people using trees, benches and ladders to get a view. The reporter says some spectators had been waiting since early morning.

The route runs between the Diana the Huntress fountain and the Angel of Independence, two familiar landmarks on the broad avenue through central Mexico City. This is a show run rather than a competitive race: Pérez performs donuts, pauses to greet spectators and eventually leaves the car to the mechanics, who push it toward the event's temporary pit platform.

The broadcast also looks beyond the spectacle. Its studio presenters discuss Pérez's Cadillac project alongside Valtteri Bottas, describing a two-year agreement and the Mexican driver's role in developing the team. Cadillac entered Formula One in 2026, making this a different chapter for a driver who finished runner-up in the championship with Red Bull in 2023.

The report is titled "Checo Pérez hace rugir su monoplaza en el Show Run en Reforma, CDMX," meaning "Checo Pérez makes his race car roar at the Show Run on Reforma in Mexico City." Its street-side focus is the occasion itself: a home crowd getting a close look at Pérez behind the wheel.
