Helmut Marko has v🤪owed that Red Bull won’t b🔜e pressurised by Audi’s offer to Carlos Sainz.

Ferrari driver Sain🌺z will lose his seat to Lewis Hamilton in⭕ 2025 and is at the centre of the F1 driver market.

Currently a free agent, his options include Red Bull, Mercedes 🌟or Sauber who will become Audi a year ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚlater.

Red Bull could offer Sainz a drive alongside Max Ver꧅stappen if they opt to get rid of Sergio Perez.

“Sa🧜inz is currently in great shape,” Marko told&n𒀰bsp;.

“I think he has a very gre🏅at three-year offer from Audi.

“But he has to make a decision relatively soon. “We, on 🤡the other haꦡnd, won't make a decision soon.

“We won't let things like that put us underღ pressure.”

The claim of a three-year offer would take Sainz into 2027, two years into the new F1 regulations.🐼 But it would also mean a first year, next season, wit🍒h Sauber.

Sainz cam🌺e through the Red Bull juni🃏or programme and teamed with Verstappen briefly at Toro Rosso.

“We𒆙ll, he was still very young back then,” Marko reacted.

“But now he has developed great and is showing incredible 🐲form.”

Sainz is the winner of the only two F1 grands prix since 2022 which R♔ed Bull have failed to w🧸in.

Victory in Australia this season came in the af🤪termath of appendix s🎐urgery.

Red Bull could opt to br✨ing him back into the fold at the expense of Perez, whose own form has impressed this year.

Perez has claimed three P2 finishes and𝕴🐎 a P3 last week at the Chinese Grand Prix to state his case for a new contract.

But A💫🌌udi’s interest in Sainz is holding up the driver market.

They will run as Sauber until 2026 when th🌱e new re൲gulations come into effect.

From there, Audi intend to make an immediate s🍬plash and are putting together their driver plans now.

Sainz has a re🦹lationship with the manufacturer because his fa𓃲ther won the Dakar Rally for them.

But a move to Sauber, as they will remain, in 2025 is no guarantee of a fast car in comparison to the extremely competitive Ferrari that he is currently fighting at the fron﷽t with.
