Carlos Sainz’s name is among the candidates for a seat at Sauber, which will become an Audi factory team in 2026. According to the German press, Carlos had until mid-April to answer whether or not he accepted the offer. In Shanghai, Sainz was asked about his current contract situation and replied that he had not yet made a decision.
Carlos Sainz: “For me the best options remain open, which can be considered positive news. Given the situation on the pilot market, it takes time to evaluate everything and make a decision. But like I said, good options remain open.
We haven’t made much progress in negotiations in recent weeks, so I have no news to report at this time. But the sooner an agreement is reached, the better.
The lack of a contract will not affect my speed this season, but it will be better if we close the matter early so that it does not occupy my thoughts all the time. This takes time and requires making certain decisions. Let’s see how events develop.”
