Red Bull told to make Carlos Sainz swoop before he’s raced for Williams
Red Bull have been advised to try to get Carlos Sainz out♛ of his Williams contract so he can ꦦreplace Sergio Perez.
Ex-F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya has urged Red Bull to make a U-Turn and sign168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Carlos Sainz to partner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen for 2025.
Red Bull passed on the opportunity to secure outgoing Ferrari driver Sainz’s services and instead decided to continue backing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez, whos꧙e position rema🅷ins uncertain despite holding a contract for next season due to his poor performances.
After several starring drives as a stand-in for Williams, Franco Colapinto has seen himself emerg༒e as a potential o♔ption for Red Bull - either at the senior team or sister squad RB. Williams cannot offer the Argentine a permanent seat for next year having committed to Sainz.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner was seen visiting Williams’ hospitality over the Sao Paulo Grand Prix weekend, ramping up sp♏eculation that Colapinto isꦺ being considered by Red Bull.
But Montoya believes Red Bull should try and get Sainz out of his Williams contract before he has even raced for the team. Such a scenario would open the door for Colapinto to stay alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon in a full-time capacity.
“If I were Christian Horner and the director of Red Bull, I would go to Williams🔥 and say, ‘look, you’re happyꦯ with Colapinto, keep him and give me Sainz’,” he told .
“Why a♏m I going to take the risk of replacing Checo – who is experience🐭d in Formula 1, has won races – to put a rookie against Max.
‘A rookie against Albon is tough, ♋but you can do it. And look at Albon, whenever he has been under pressurꦆe and has had a fast team-mate he has crashed and continues to do so.
“Max doesn’t make mistakes and he doesn’t faiꦇl, so it’s complicated.”
Montoya added: “Personally, if I were Christian, I would say to him, ‘do you like Colapinto so much and do you want to make him🌊 grow?’”
“Me knowing Carlos, I think he has t💃old Wil🌱liams that he signed for them, but if he doesn’t win or do podiums, if someone offers me something, every year I can leave.
“Then they [Red Bulꦯl] could say to [Williams], ‘you can lose Carlos now or in a year, now you get money and next year you get no money’.
“If it was like that, that’s the move I would make for Red Bull, I wouldn’t goꦆ for Colapinto, 𓆏I would go for Carlos.”
