"Honestly, not even in my wildest dreams could I have imagined it," Perez told reporters on Tuesday about reaching the milestone at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.
Perez's landmark start was moved to his home race by a reshaped calendar after the cancellations of the Saudi Arabian and Bahrain Grands Prix, with Malaysia replacing Bahrain.
