In an interview with Kleine Zeitung, Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko confirmed that he has spoken with Carlos Sainz about a contract for the 2025 season…
Helmut Marko: “It is clear to everyone that Sergio is now having his best season. If he continues to perform as he did in qualifying in Japan, he will be Red Bull’s best option in 2025.
Now working for the team, he realized that last year’s radical approach to institutions was wrong. Now he chooses almost the same settings that Max uses, which ultimately works.
We are also in negotiations with Sainz, although he has a very lucrative offer from Audi that we cannot compete with. We know him from the Toro Rosso days, when he raced with Max. Then it really hurt that we supported Verstappen at Red Bull, and not him.
Tsunoda? Yuki has started the season well, but there are only four races left, so it is too early to draw conclusions. But he keeps the pressure on Ricciardo and in Japan the results were very close.”
