Carlos Sainz, a prominent Formula 1 driver, is currently in the spotlight as discussions about his future in the sport intensify. Various commentators and insiders are advocating for Sainz to secure a top seat in next year's lineup, emphasizing his proven track record and potential value to leading teams. Speculation is rife about his possible move to either Red Bull or Mercedes, with Red Bull being highlighted as a particularly suitable team for him, especially as a 'perfect insurance policy' if Max Verstappen leaves for Mercedes. Sainz's history of partnering with Verstappen at Red Bull and his ability to maximize car performance are cited as key reasons why Red Bull would benefit from signing him, particularly over Checo, who is perceived as not being able to maximize the car's potential. Despite the strong case being made for his inclusion in a top team, Sainz is still searching for a seat for the upcoming season, with a clear preference for avoiding 'a long term gamble play at Audi' or racing for a backmarker.
Sainz is still looking for a seat for next year 👀 https://t.co/p72rs4jgSH
Red Bull would be silly not to sign Carlos. He deserves a front running car and he’s partnered Max before. Checo just isn’t able to maximize that car.
If you’re Red Bull, you’re only looking at Sainz for the seat next to Max next year, while also being a perfect insurance policy if Max bolts to Mercedes.
Formula 1 teams... listen up. Carlos Sainz has proved time and time again he deserves a top seat PLEASE DON'T MAKE HIM RACE FOR A BACKMARKER NEXT YEAR
Sainz really is doing the max to put himself in the shop window for next year I think he deserves a top seat (rather than a long term gamble play at Audi let’s say), could we see him at Red Bull? Or Mercedes? Surely he has to be in the convos now more than ever now
