Franco Colapinto has a prop⭕osal which would see him drive for RB in 2025, it is claimed.

The Williams driver has hugely impressed since ste🌠pping in on a temporary basis, but knows he can’t stay with his current team next season because they are welcoming Carlos Sainz.

Sainz, the outgoi𓃲ng Ferrari driver, is on pole for the F1 Mexico City Grand Prix and is a major coup for Williams alongside Alex Albon.

൲But Colapinto’s good form since replacing Logan Sargeant has attracted admiration from elsewhere.

Red Bull have fir🌄me⛎d up their interest,  report.

"The offer is there, in Milton Keynes they ca🌱n offer him a seat,” they rep🥂ort.

“But the 'card' is from Williams which🌟 has had him in its junior pro⛎gramme for two years and it is not certain that it is willing to sell him.”

Red Bull could opt to put Colapinto into their sister team, at RB, while promoting Liam Lawson ꦛto the main team alongside Max Verstap♍pen, and getting rid of Sergio Perez.

Colapinto told Sky Sports about his future: “Iꦏ am not really into it. My managers do an amazing job and I trust them.

“My job is to drive the car quick eno😼ugh, to turn the wheel.

“They are do🌜ing a great job. I am not focused on what is happening, I ♉don’t want to put energy into it.

“I know there are no seats l🅺eft, no space for me to go.

“I am trying to show tha💝t I deserve a place in Formula 1, that I c🐼ame to stay.

“I hope to leave that impression.

“I am sure tha🦄t in the future - 2026 0r 2027 - I will be back.”

Sky Sports’ Karun Chandhok reacted to the rumours of a move to RB: “He’s done a great j🅷ob.

“He’s proved that he deserves to stay. It’s a shame that there isn’t a seat at Willꦏiams.

“The team want to help him stay i♛n F1 but they’ll want to keep him on a bungee-cord, not just le🔴t him go.

“Otherwise they’ve invested in training him for someone else to get tﷺhe benefit.

“The only way is for Williams to put him on a lead. But if you’re RB, are you keen on that? Historically they’d want to own the contract.🥀”
