Carlos Sainz to Red Bull in 2025? Christian Horner has said it can't be completely ruled out...

Christian Horner has said it’s impossible to rule out “any possibility” after Carlos Sainz’s controlled win in Australia.

Having got the better of Leclerc all weekend in Australia on his first weekend back from having his appendix removed, his drive resulted in Red Bull boss Christian Horner opting against ruling out the chance of Sainz joining his team for next year. “We want to field the best pairing we can with Red Bull Racing so, sometimes, you got to look outside the pool as well,” Horner said.“I mean, based on a performance like that, you couldn’t rule any possibility out.

Speaking in the post-race press conference after his win, Sainz was asked whether his Australian GP victory is going to help him in his negotiations in the driver market as he bids to find a new seat.“That is 100 percent. But yeah, I’m still without a job for next year. So I guess this is going to help it. And yeah, I don’t know.

As for whether he feels underrated in the paddock, given Red Bull were previously willing to let him go, and now Ferrari has done the same, Sainz offered his thoughts.
