There is talk that he may be in negotiations with Williams for their second seat next year alongside Alex Albon.
“Williams, as we understand, are sick of waiting for Carlos Sainz to make his mind up on where he wants to go next year and may close that door off for him.”
I suspect he’s still hoping for Merc, it’s still a moonshot for Merc to sign Max, so they are hedging between Carlos and Max. Red Bull would also become available if Max left, no way Red Bull would promote any of the two RB drivers through choice and Carlos would be their best bet.
My mind is still blown over having Sainz and Bearman, then opting to sign Hamilton. Ferrari were finally doing everything right so it makes sense they’d shoot their foot.
