Ferrari driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz remains t🦩op of Audi’s wishlist as they look to complete their first driver line-up for the 2025 F1 season.

On Friday, Sauber - which will become Audi from 2026 - announced that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg will be their driver next year.

The German has impressed during his stint with Haas, par൲ticularly his outstanding qualifying performances.

As outlined by , Sainz ♎remains Audi’s dream signing.

Sainz worked ওwith current Sauber CEO Andreas Seidl during his two years at McLaren, and would be Audi’s number one choice.

However, ﷽the Spaniard appears to be in no rush to commit to Audi because he’s waiting to see what Red Bull and Mercedes does.

Sainz has his eyes on☂ the second Red Bull seat alongside Max Verstappen.

Red Bull are monitoring 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s performances, who to his credit, started the 2024 F1 season strongly with three, second-p🍌lace finishes.

Red Bull might not𒁃 want to upset the dynamic within the dream given Verstappen and Sainz’s intense rivalry - at least between their families - during their Toro Rosso days.

Mercedes also remain an option for Sainz, however, it does appear that they will opt🎀 for Andrea Kimi Antonelli.

In terms of other options outside of Sainz, Audi have a𒉰 “flurry of options”.

Seidl is fond of Alpine driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon, who likeܫ Hulkenberg, has been impressive in the early races of the seasღon.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly is alsꦛo an option should they not be ♉able to capture Sainz.

Current drivers 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Zhou Guanyu remain in the frame but are unfavourable choices given the number of drivers on the market🍌.
