The driver market is starting to get wild. It started with Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari contract, then Adrian Newey's departure could start an avalanche that could even put Carlos Sainz in place of Max Verstappen.
His compatriot, the always well-informed F1 commentator Antonio Lobato, wrote that he is aware that Sainz did not accept Audi's offer. Moreover, because he is waiting for a much more competitive option!
"I have information that Sauber/Audi will soon announce who they have chosen as Nico Hülkenberg's teammate. One thing is for sure, this person will not be Carlos Sainz, because he is looking for completely different options for 2025, which is why he did not accept the otherwise extraordinary offer. If he had signed for the Germans, he would have been extremely well off financially, but money is not everything for him, his world championship dreams are much more important. That is why he decided to look for a more competitive team. And the best option for this could be Red Bull Racing. He has already talked to Mercedes, but it looks like they need Verstappen, and now they have a good chance of getting him. So he is in talks with Red Bull, but there is no decision on his case yet..." - wrote Lobato.
Well, if this comes to pass, it will be tantamount to a total reorganization. And we can't say that all this wouldn't fit into Formula 1...
