The Ferrari driver’s long-term future remains up in the air with his current deal set to expire at the end of the 2024 season, along with his teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc. 

But while Leclerc has reportedly signed a new long-term🦩 deal to drive for Ferrari until the end🍰 of the 2029 season, contract negotiations with Sainz appear to be hitting a stumbling block. 

According to Italy’𒐪s , Sainz wants a minimum two-year extension, but Ferrari’s preference is to offer the Sp🌃aniard a one-year deal. 

If fresh terms cannot be agreed, the Italian publication claims Sainz could replace 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez as168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Max Verstappen’s teammate in 2025. 

Perez, who faced intense scrutiny over his Red Bull future for much of𒊎 the second half of the 2023 season due to his underwhelming perform🐭ances, only has a valid contract for next season. 

And Gazzatta say that Sainz - a product of Red Bull’s j๊unior scheme who was overlooked for promotion during his time at Toro Rosso - could be high up on Red Bull’s list of potent𝓡ial candidates for 2025. 

The 2🦩9-year-old Spaniard has also found himself linked to Audi’s F1 project but has repeatedly stressed his desire to remain a Ferrari driver. 

If the reports turn out to be true, Sainz could find himself going head-to-head with AlphaTauri’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo and McLaren’s168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Lando Norris to become Verstappen’s next teammate.
