Despite winning the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, Sergio Perez does not top the Formula 1 Drivers' Championship.
With both Red Bull drivers now having one win apiece in 2023, it is Max Verstappen who is on top after Round 2 by dint of scoring fastest lap on the last lap in Jeddah.
Indeed, Red Bull have only dropped one point across the first two races.
Fernando Alonso is third - a pair of third place finishes to his name for Aston Martin.
In the Constructors', Red Bull have stretched their lead with Mercedes drawing level with Aston on 38 points in third following Ferrari's slow start to the season.
Full championship standings for the Drivers' and Constructors' standings are available below after the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
