Honestly I think RedBull should’ve signed Sainz for 2025 as soon as Lewis to Ferrari was confirmed

Max leaves RB and Alonso slots in his seat, hmmm, as a big fan of Fernando I still find it hard to imagine that happening as Marko isn't very fond of him. Even if that happens, RB develops their car around Alonso's driving style? Just for a year or two? Hmmm... Unless RB keeps true to their car philosophy and expects Alonso to adapt then maybe.

I think people forget Sainz is not some new and young prospect. He's been in F1 since 2015 which doesn't feel like that long ago until you realize this will be his 10th season in F1. He's a veteran at this point. Drivers like Alonso have skewered the picture and people have forgotten that the average F1 career is only 10-15 years long with most drivers not driving past 35, especially non-champions. This is his last chance realistically for a top seat. His options are Russell's wingman, the midfield AMR-Honda if Alonso retires this year or the risky Audi-Sauber which could be anywhere in 2026 onwards. Everything else is either booked or basically hanging up the boots on your F1 career. Point is, he doesn't have the luxury of throwing his career away, he's totally dependent on external circumstances now. I don't see Mercedes going for him, they either need a wingman for Russell or a new young prospect (maybe a bit early for Antonelli) to nurture as the future of Mercedes if they don't have faith in Russell. Maybe he lucks in as a stop gap which is ironically exactly what he was for Ferrari. May as well try to be the main man at a works project if the Mercedes seat doesn't work out.

100% correct take, tho it's true that maybe Audi can also be a medium step to replace Alonso later, either Aston or RB

i think he has to stay in a top team during 3 or four years like rb, mer , aston and then go to audi and be number one driver.

Audi are already at risk, some of them don’t even want to join the grid

Hamilton going to Ferrari will be seen as one of the biggest mistakes in F1 history. Hamilton will not improve the team. The duo Leclerc/Sainz is already the best on the grid imo (I mean look at their wheel to wheel combat), and they have respect for each other. This move is not only a gut punch for Sainz but also for Leclerc who will have to leave in the shadow of Hamilton. And finally having Hamilton in the team will just put even more scrutiny on their incompetence.

I think Sainz already knows where he is going for 2025 and its Audi. The motorsport division is one of the worlds best and history has shown no matter the series they hit the ground running very fast and they have had quite a long run up to get things developed. I think we have already seen their influence in Sauber as its ownership increases year on year and it will be interesting to watch them this season as upgrades happen which will be influenced by Audi.

Who says Fernando won't be a rookie for a 100 more years?

Sainz doesn't really have many options. He can either be second driver at Red Bull and Mercedes or risk it all by moving to Stake and wait for Audi to arrive. I don't really see many other good options, other than maybe Aston but that team is kinda all over the place.

Aston Martin might indeed be his best option. Furthermore I believe the scenario you briefly mentioned in which Max leaves Red Bull and is replaced by Alonso is more likely to happen than one might think right now: There seems to be much tension between Verstappen's management and Horner, which seemingly started with Horner trying to ditch advisor Helmut Marko last year. The Verstappen's are on Marko's side, because it was him who brought Max into F1 in 2015 and to Red Bull in early 2016. If Horner stays as team principal despite the current debacle, I can see Verstappen leave Red Bull by the end of the year. It also makes sense long-term: There is a new set of engine-regulations on the way for 2026. Mercedes has developed F1 engines for the last 20+ years, Red Bull only has had his own engine-department for just a couple of years now and they never had to design and built a powertrain from scratch, since they basically took over what Honda left behind. So I can see Max replacing Hamilton at Mercedes, Alonso replacing Max at Red Bull, Sainz replacing Alonso at Aston and once Kimi Antonelli is ready for F1, Merceds might either give him a test-driver contract to put Russel under pressure or negotiate a deal for him at Williams similar to what they did with Russel.

Objectively Bottas and Zhou never underperform the car, and are good enough for a midfield Audi team. Hulkenberg is good too and also German. Why not other midfield drivers? Yes there are other good ones, but realistically what's the point to have them when they are not a big upgrade from Bottas/Zhou/Hulkenberg? In the end I think it's Bottas/Zhou/Hulkenberg to Audi.

Bottas is very good

Lando/piastri to rb and sainz to mclaren looks like an option too

Hmmm good analysis. With the new factories and facilities at Aston Martin, and with Honda's onboarding from 2026 season onwards, Carlito can take a punt at Aston. And it could be advisable for him to not go for the Audi seat right now. If he finds out that Aston is not working in 2026, and Audi is, then he can always move to Audi after 2027.

How long did it take Brawn GP though??

Thing is with Aston Martin, Sainz going there would present the same risk as going to Audi, with the teams having new power unit makers in 2026. Plus, how competitive will they be in 2025, is another question. I think it’s more likely he will go to Mercedes for a few years as a way to still be in a competitive car while waiting is see what Audi become. It’s not like Mercedes have become backmarkers and it looks like they might finally be going places with their ground-effect era concept. The element of stability with Merc going into 2026 and beyond makes that the more viable option for him, in my eyes.

Mercedes going places? To P5 and P7 like in the season opener? Wait a minute, that's worse than last year 😂

I wouldn't mind seeing Sainz in Ferarri in WEC

•Audi has now committed to 100% buy-out of Sauber in 2026. Wouldn't just count them out so easily now.

Wait, wait. If Sainz ever beats George, Mercedes would become his team?! He has beaten both Lando and Charles and Lando in their respective teams, yet it never become his team. Be for real, George's disrespect is hilarious 🤣

That part of the video is delusional Sainz wouldn't be able to beat neither Norris or Russelll in the long term

Under-deliveries at RB due to Hell-mute on schedule. Carlos to RB would be entertaining but teamed with Alonso is proper.

I mean... Carlos Sainz is a former Red Bull Junior driver

'I don't care, Lewis is weak'. Eat it Carlos.

Although Max is the runaway favourite for 2024, I believe this season is Sainz’s best chance to win over the next five years. Carlos has the car (Ferrari) apparently capable of winning the odd race, so if Carlos can simply put himself in contention at each track he has an outside chance. It’s time for him to use Keke Rosberg as his inspiration. As far as the future, Aston Martin may very well be his best option - 100%.

I think you're right.

Didnt know this was a comedy video… lance being replaced!?! Gooooooooooood one…..

Alonso to Merc and Sainz to AMR makes sense . Or Both as teammates in AMR

Feel bad for sainz thoo... He is top 5 driver right now 100 percent

Max Lewis Leclerc Lando Fernando

Aldas Aldas Aldas what can I say? I still think you were wrong about your drivers ratings back in 2019. But after the Australian Grand Prix and actually having a closer look at has done over the last year I have to say Carlos Sainz has slowly but steadily improved his driving to become currently the strongest driver on the formula 1 grid. I'm not saying that I'm wrong about being critical of Carlos in the past. But honestly, I'm just keeping it real in the present. Good Mr. Sainz!!😀👍🏾

I think Red Bull and Mercedes should really consider their options with Sainz on the table for next season. I couldn't care less about was RB have promised Ricci, nor Mercedes' plans for Antonelli. I'd immediately change my mind if Alonso retires and leaves that space at Aston. Like you said, the dev cycle of thaf team has been amazing. They need to be in a position where they aren't lagging mid season as the did last year... if they can sustain the development race this year.... I have hope that Carlos can thrive there.

You can't down the opportunity of signing Lewis

Its one year not two years, so I think its a good gamble

Agree that Aston Martin would be a great fit for Carlos.

It's a complete no-brainer for Carlos; get in that Audi and make bank (a lot) and for many years to come and as the #1 driver versus putting himself in the harm's way in a yo-yo position at Red Bull. Carlos is one - if not the - smartest driver on the grid today and while he might not be winning as much he would like to, he plays chess while the most of rest of the grid plays checkers. Just a thought.

Here's the problem, since like 2013 that team hasn't finished higher than 8th.

Sainz is too good to be in the midfield honestly. I hope he gets a seat at Mercedes or Red Bull. If I'm Horner, I'm weighing the pros and cons of dropping perez for sainz. Sainz has certainly been the better driver in the past year.

what kind of crack were u on when u thought aston martin could have an all spanish lineup without stroll lmao

For red bull Lando Norris is the number 1 replacement for replacing Max For Mercedes top priority is Max and then Kimi then Fernando or Sebastian Red bull won't replace Perez even if he doesn't finish 2nd in the drivers championship as longest as he doesn't crash a lot for obvious reasons they want to keep him and also his connection with her. ( Wait till the end of Jeddah weekend because Sunday there will be a fire which will be the great hell for someone)

Thank you. Finally someone who doesn't dismiss Sainz potentially beating Russel. Many regard Leclerc a much better driver than Russel and Sainz is right there with Leclerc. Him beating Russel in Mercedes is very possible and even probable.

The best combination would be Carlos and Checo in Aston Martin. They are both gentlemen, they both work first for the team, methodical, disciplined, and they also have a good relationship. Checo knows the team well and Carlos replacing Fernando. Of course, all this with the condition that Fernando goes to another team or retires and that Stroll decides to realize that he is not going to give any more.

Hear me out, Max to Mercedes, Alonso to Red Bull, Sainz to Aston, Lawson to RB, Antonelli to Williams, Bearman to Haas and Ricciardo to Sauber for 2025. Gonna laugh at this next year.

I liked Sainz at Ferrari, but the move they pulled with Hamilton made 2024 and 2025 already really interesting, at least off track (on track we all know RB will keep winning everything). Personally I'd love to see Sainz in Aston Martin alongside Alonso, but I wouldn't mind if he moved to Mercedes either, which I do believe it's a little more unlikely since they have a lot of options already, even more so if Antonelli will have an incredible F2 season.

4:00 are you sure about this 😂 At this point Im 80/20 that Audi will pull out, like every VAG company previously since they have no desire to race in F1 and management changes hands way to much in that company that evey two to three years they sound like a heavily bipolar freak. So yeah i wouldn't put any of my eggs in that audi basket till that Team is actually at a race and its called Team AUDI 😂

Would be funny if RBR end up with Ricciardo-Sainz line up in 2025

For the past +15 years being a Ferrari driver is throwing your career.

05:51 - you sure about that? 😉

Sainz has proven his worth over the last 2 years. Even if he were to sign with Audi people would still understand his talent if he were to have shortcomings. In my opinion if Audi come to the table with a pay wage that is hard to turn down he should just accept the deal. Even if he disappoints with them his name is established.

Sainz to Red Bull

People expect Audi to fail but a whats basically a privateer in Andretti do well..nope what you are looking at there are the new Arrows and Minardi.
