Mercedes told to pursue ‘asset’ Carlos Sainz to replace Lewis Hamilton
Carlos Sainz recommended to Mercedes after🌠 glory at F1 Australian Graওnd Prix

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz has been recommended as the ideal replacement for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes.
Sainz won the F1 Australian Grand Prix, a race which Red Bull’s Max Verstappen and Mercedes’ Hamilton failed to ♎finish.
Ferrari’s Sainz feat was made even more he🥃rculean because he underwent appendix surgery a fortnight ago, and was forced to han♊d his car over to Ollie Bearman.
Sainz will lose his Ferrari in 2025 to the incoming Hamilton and is currently without a ra😼ce seat for next year although surely won’t have to wait long for offers to flood in.
“I don’t think he wil🌼l be,” Sky Sports’ Naomi Schiff said.
“Carlos is a driver that provides a lot of asse⛄ts to a team, more so than just speed.
“He✨ comes with a lot of experience even though he is quite young.
“He is a solid driver. He comes with a🐼 race-thinking mentality, he’s got all pictures covered and a൩ll boxes ticked in terms of how he thinks about a race weekend.
“He’༺ll be a real asset to any team. I could maybe se﷽e him at Red Bull, maybe Mercedes, maybe Aston Martin.
“Who knows, but he won’t have to wait l💞ong to have a seat.”
Mercedes have a guaranteed vacancy created by Hamilton. Red Bull could be an o♑ption if th🀅ey dispense with Sergio Perez or if Verstappen shockingly leaves.
Aston Mar𝕴tin might be on the table if Fernando Alonso lands the Mercedes ꦉdrive.
But Sainz has significantly won the last t♈wo grands prix by a ༺non-Red Bull driver after winning in Australia.
Karun Chandhok reacted: “𒈔It’s a mad world, the only driver who has beaten a Red Bull since November 2022 is out of a job for next year!
“It was a superb performance. He had the measure of Charles since the start of qualifying. He executes a p🐷erfect race.
“If you were Mercedes looking at it? You’d say ‘we haveꦓ lost an established star, we’re coming into the final year of the regulatio🐈ns, we need an experienced driver who has shown that he cope with the pressure of winning grands prix’.
“There’s one, right here. I think he’d be a great f⛄it 🎀alongside George Russell at Mercedes.”
The most mentioned options for Mercedes have been Alonso or their junior driver Andrea Kimi Antoꦜnelli so far. Versta♊ppen then unexpectedly shot into the picture.
But team boss To🌳to Wolff has insisted that he will take his time before deciding on Hamilton’s replacement.
On the evidence of r🐽ecent results, Sainz must surely come into his th🐟inking.
