Helmut Marko has admitted 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainzꦦ must be considered for a Red Bull seat next year.

But his admission goes against a prediction made by Ralf Schumacher, who thinks Red Bull won’t want to bring Sainz back int﷽o the fold.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez is into the final year of his contra❀ct as Max Verstappen’s teammate and, with some top-notch names available on the driver market, Red Bull could make a big change.

“I don't really believe that the decision at Red Bull won't be made unt🃏il the summer,” Schumacher told Sky Germany before the F1 Japanese Grand Prix.

“N🐭ow is the hot phase, no𝓀w Sainz is on the market. It has to be done now.

“Perez is a candidate who has to vไac♔ate the cockpit.

“Fernando Alonso is also still on the market.

"That's why this has to b✱e decided now at Red Bull.

"I think Sainz, as far asꦦ Dr. Helmut Marko is concerned, won't be the No1 priority because he already let him go [from Toro Rosso].

“He ꧒already had him against Max back then, and exchanged him because he said that Max was clearly the better one.

“So it will be difficult for Car🍰los if Dr. Marko makes the decision💝.”

But Red Bull advisor Marko said, even before the Ferrari driver finished on the podium at Suzuka: "Sainz is curre🐽ntly in incredible form.

“Sainz came into Formula 1 through Red Bull and also had a very good year at T🍷oro Rosso.

“Sainz is certainly a name that you 🍎have to take into account.”

Ferrari's Sainz is ༒the only driver aside from the Red Bulls to have won a grand pᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚrix last season or this year.

At the F1 Japanese Graꦯnd Prix, he completed the podium behind Verstappen and Perez.

Sainz is out of a seat n🤡ext year when his Ferrari is taken by Lewis Hamilton, who will leave Mercedes.

Mercedes have the most notable current vacancy for the 2💛025 grid to fill.

Verstappen could still become a Mercede꧟s target although he is likelier to stick with the lucrative contract he is on, until 2028, with Red Bull.

The possibility of Perez retaining his🐻 seat has perhaps improved after the earliest rounds of this season.

Perez entered 20🤡24 under immense pressure after some below-par performances last year.

But he finished P2 at the first t♚wo grands prix, both times behind Verstappenꦉ, the perfect result for his team.

Aston Martin’s Alonso꧅ is also into the final year of his contract so could be a target for 🌺Red Bull or Mercedes.

Sainz, meanwhile, could take Alonso’s place at Aston Martin or go 🌺to Sauber ahead of their evolution into Audi, a brand he already has an♔ affinity with through his father.
