Audi “pushing” for Carlos Sainz to say yes or no
Audi are increas✱ing the pressure for a decision from their No 1 driver choice

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz is reportedly being pressured for a final decision on his 2025 🌼drive by Audi.
The German powerhouses will enter F1 properly in 2026 but, this y🉐ear and next, are running as💃 Sauber.
Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou are theꦏir current drivers 🏅but Audi have their own ideas.
Sainz is top of the list buꦑt Audi are now “pushing” him to confirm whether he will join or not, German publication reports.
Sainz will lose his Ferrari drive to Lewis Hamilton in 2025 but is attracting plenty ܫof interest from up and down the grid.
His grand prix victories in Singapore and Australia are the only two wins from a ꦓnon-Red Bull drive꧒r since 2022.
Mercedes must find a replacement fo🐟r Hamilton so Sainz would represent a straightforwℱard choice.
Red Bull could🎀 also look to Sainz if they choose to get rid of Sergio Perez.
But Aston Martin have va🐼nished as an option because Fernando Alonso ignored possible interest f🔯rom Mercedes or Red Bull to sign a new long-term contract.
Sainz knows that joining Sauber in ෴2025 - ahead of the team becoming Audi in 2026 when the new regulations k💜ick in - represents a longer-term project.
Audi have other options if Sainz says no.
Nico Hu𒈔lkenberg, who has impressed for Haas in the early rounds of this season, is a German driver who could spearhead t💝he German manufacturer’s entry.
Audi are also aware of the availability of Alpine duo Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon, who are amon♏g the many drivers to be out of contract at the end of this year.
Yuki Tsunoda of RB is also on Audi’s radar.
