Where do you think Carlos Sainz will end up in 2025?

The sad thing about Carlos' win in Silverstone is that nearly nobody from his team cared to celebrate on the pitwall, as if they were pissed he won instead of Charles

I'm not a big Sainz fan, but the guy is WAY too good not to be on the grid. Would be a shame not to have him around.

Can you imagine the fireworks there will be if Ferrari start screwing up Hamiltons pit stops. 🤬🤬🤣🤣

I never noticed it before, Carlos has literally followed Fernando into different teams in the exact same order. Minardi/Torro Rossi, Renault, McLaren then now Ferrari

poor Carlos had a good season

I'll be rooting for Sainz this year, his partnership with Leclerc wasn't like a Perez and Verstappen situation.. He was very close to Leclerc and it was never surprising when he did better than Leclerc..

I feel for Sainz, he's a great driver and deserves a good drive. No matter how much cash they offer him, I hope he doesn't go the Sauber/Audi team route, It would be too much of a waste of talent for him to be at the back of the grid..

Carlos only finishing 6 pts behind Leclerc whilst the being the unfavoured driver says everything about Carlos. Unreal driver and I’m sad that he won’t be driving for us anymore.

Carlos is the best driver on offer for '25. He'll have his choice of teams. I'd LOL if he goes to Merc.

Sainz is too damn good to not have a seat. It would've been his 10th year in f1 for 2025 so sad that his seat for that year is unconfirmed. I may be biased tho as he is my fav driver.

I'm still mad andretti didn't get in. And I blame Lewis for taking lught away from that story😂😂

If Ferrari somehow ended up making the best car this year I'd put my ferrari hate at one side and root for Carlos to win the championship before leaving

I just don’t understand how you look at Ferrari’s last 3 seasons and say to yourself, “yeah, I want to drive for them”. I think Sainz talent makes him get further with the car because he’s good at adapting. That’s the same intelligence he won Singapore with and it’s something Hamilton really struggles with

I think Mercedes could be a good fight for both team and driver. Carlos seems to play well with teammates and is very much a team player, something that will appeal to Mercedes. Mercedes also showed signs of progress through the season, and were still towards the front of the field. Sainz is also a proven race winner and so would be a low risk option for Merc.

Everyone is talking about Sainz but what about Leclerc? I mean, no one really thinks Hamilton will be a support driver so what’s the deal between Ferrari and Leclerc now? All the best to everyone

I think Carlos is an amazingly professional driver. He may not be dynamic but he is.m very good.

the grid is turning more and more into a f1 career mode save

Carlos needs a top drive, he's way too good to end up at the back of the grid. Also, glad your sounding a wee bit better bud 👍

Will predicts Sauber. Nailed on now to end up at Williams.

New drinking game : Take a shot whenever an F1 youtuber mentions Kimi Antonelli

Carlos need to be his own Race engineer and strategist, call the shots this season, give a .... to ferrari and show his talent; that way doors will be opened by silly season and secure a position in a top team.

I don't think Carlos will go to Mercedes or RB. He probably wants to be the #1 in a team that doesn't suck, so Stake is out of the question. I think Aston might be a good option. He might also go back to Alpine, in the very unlikely scenario that they don't renew Ocon's or Gasly's contract

He’s a good driver I hope he succeeds no matter where he goes

Carlos Sainz Sr. already has a relationship with Audi, through their rally program. Given Carlos Jr's already established credentials, I'd say it's pretty much a slam dunk for Carlos Jr. to get the # 1 driver slot in the upcoming Audi F1 team.

I can't wait for your comedy revies of the f1 24 season! They make me so happy. Hope you get lots of rest and get better!

As a "company man," per se, a thing like being shown the door a year out would make me a bitter s.o.b. so good thing I am nowhere near an F1 cockpit in this lifetime. Still, and memory is hazy here so I could be off, he has more lead time to try and arrange things than Perez did. Hope he lands in a good spot.

I hope that Carlos just keeps his head down and drives. His value as a driver is inherently tied to how he performs from now until the end of this year. I wish him well.

The driver merry-go-round is going to add some interest to this season. It was going to be terribly dull but now there is going to be genuine chaos down the grid. Can't wait for the first Ham vs Lec battle on track.

Please can we have a Alonso Sainz combo at Aston😍

On the point of drivers not being as good as they get older, you mentioned Alonso, but Hamiltons 40 and still one of the top three out there. I think Sainz sees the Audi option as his best bet for a multi year thing.

I want him to wind up in that Merc, as I have little faith that the Audi project will be decent for the first several years. Alonso might ultimately get that AMG Petronas drive. I couldn't care less about Hamilton, but his Ferrari jump is going to cause a Tsunami of moves over the next year or two. Fun stuff.

I predict Mercedes may "recall" Bottas with a huge pay raise and juicy bonus as incentive. The team is in shambles, and they need someone who won't rock the boat; a "yes man" if you will, and that will either be Bottas or Mick. Either way, they would only be there as a stop-gap (hence why I think Mick may also be possible) until Kimi Antonelli is ready, as I doubt Toto will want to pluck him too soon and unceremoniously throw him to the wolves before he is fully ready. This would leave a spot open in Stake/Audi for Carlos to step into. It's possible that if Carlos went to Red Bull, he would focus on making himself a living hell for Ferrari. Think Checo in Abu Dhabi 2021, but for every lap of every race. He would want to make them regret dumping him like garbage, while also showing that he can contribute to a championship team by defending against their rivals. AMR and Williams are very doubtful. Right now, AMR's future is looking far brighter than Mercedes' (even Ferrari was outpacing Mercedes by the end of last season). So unless AMR falls off a cliff, which would then make them a terrible team for anyone to go to, the only way Alonso leaves is if he decides another terrible career move is in the works. I think Alonso will observe both AMR and Merc's performance and judge at the end, but I suspect Merc will struggle greatly. As for Williams, I can't see James Vowles letting Alex go without a fight. Furthermore, Alex is not only the number one driver, it's practically his team like Ferrari with Schumacher, Mercedes with Lewis and Red Bull with Max. On top of this, it's a historic team and now that it's finally improving, it would be terrible to just drop them. Plus, Alex is looking like he will go down as the driver that saved Williams. There's just too much going on in his favor for him to jump ship to Mercedes, who may be in the midst of reenacting the Titanic as a Formula 1 team.

"singular brain cell"😂

I've heard all the rational point of views on this. Now it's time hear Will's take on it, and I can't wait.

Alonso + Wolff = 🍿

I’ve long wanted Carlos to go to Audi. John Elkann can shove all of Charles’ WDC trophy where the sun doesn’t shine. Too bad there likely won’t be any.

A move to Stake before transitioning to Audi makes so much sense for Carlos. It's a risk, but it's either go to Audi and build the team around him, or go to a team where there's already an established driver.

Sainz is staying on the grid, it all depends who takes Lewis seat at MB, then the driver shuffle will begin

Over 100K subscribers!! Congrats bro..

The Aston Martin option looks quite fitting for him, but it depends on what Alonso does for 2025 or if the team finally gets rid of Lance Stroll. Audi is the easy choice, mostly due to his father's link with the brand currently. But what about going to Red Bull to be n° 2 to Max? I poise Albon for that spot, but Sainz has also have to be considered tho..... Man, I won't sleep well tonight thinking about this😅😅😂😂

Love how the background music is a P5 soundtrack

Honestly don't think Carlos wants to be Max's slave. Of course RBR includes Racing Bulls, how about Carlos & Liam driving for Andretti (ex Racing Bulls) in 2025 for a way left field prediction?

I think Stake is most likely for Carlos. While I think that Carlos to Red Bull could make a lot of sense, I think team chemistry would be a strong reason not to make that move (although it's worth pointing out that these are now older, more mature versions of both drivers), and admittedly I am more optimistic than most about Daniel Ricciardo's potential in the Red Bull seat, so I think he makes the most sense for Red Bull right now. Mercedes would be a good option as well, but I think it makes more sense to make the move to Audi a year early. He'd be a strong upgrade over either existing driver as well and that could benefit the team as they make the transition to Audi.

Let's go babyyyy!! 🏎🏁🖤❤ ready to support Charles and Carlos! 😎 Championship season, let's get it 🤙🏽❤🇮🇹 Forza C² ❤❤💪🏽💪🏽 💚🤍❤ Forza Ferrari! 💚🤍❤

It should be what now for leclerc He's officially second driver now

This commentary is gold.

I'm rather looking forward to seeing Lewis Hamilton's reaction to a 12 second pitstop

In a world dominated by Red Bull, only one hero could save us... CARLOS SAINZ !!! But fr, I honestly hope he gets a good seat after 2024

When LH signed his current severely overpaid contract with Mercedes, the latter stated that they wanted to continue to work with LH after his F1 retirement. I bet they don't feel like what they're paying LH is money well spent.

What Im interested in - Can Lewis turn around Ferrari as the Man, the Myth, the Legend - Michael Schumacher did.

Love the humor! ❤️😀

oh I thought you were about to say lewis was about to announce his retirement after the '26 season

I sort of like the idea of him at Aston Martin, I think he'd be a really positive influence for Lance.

the p5 music was a nice touch

Some would suggest Albon is already a done deal at RB for 2025, so that rules that out. Maybe....

i think you are spot on, sainz to stake f1

i think he will most likely go to audi. mercedes is tempting but it wouldnt b a long term option. at audi he could be a teamleader for awhile

Love the surprise Deus Ex music

First of all , did ferrari promote their race engineer to driver selector?!

00:43 - "and held his own against the Dutchman in that 2015 season" no he didn't... Max had 49 points vs Carlos' 18. Carlos had 7 DNFs and Max had 5 which does make up for it a little. Max didn't completely destroy him, but it wasn't pretty for Sainz.

Free for u will “Hamilton’s career’s going to nose drive faster then gorsJean at bahrain”

Wait why cant RB Carlos Sainz happen? It is known that the beef was between the fathers of both drivers when they were tyring to make a name for themselves. They are now both established drivers, Multiple world champions for MV and now multiple race wins for CS. I dont see immature drama like that happening especially under Christian Horner's eye

Sainz will probably move to Aston. He was a lot of options. When drivers like Ric or Bottas can stay, he surely can expect a drive.

Move to Sauber in preparation to Audi, Go to Mercedes, if the Albon news is real at all take a shot at building something with Williams. He's a race winner and strong driver, I doubt he'll be strapped for a drive. Sucks that the two people he had to up against were Ferarri's Chosen one and well...Lewis Hamilton.

Now there’s Bearman

Why'd they do this BEFORE the entire 2024 season?

If Piastri doesn't do the job and match Norris, is McLaren an option? He was very good for them and had a great working relationship with Lando.

He'll be a perfect fot for a #1 driver seat for Audi especially cuz his fathers relationship with them but thats not til 26

When did Brits start saying the month before the day in dates? I thought that was only an American thing?

Well right now its looking like its back firing on Ferrari 😂 Carlos has only had two races and has 40 points while his teammate has 47 but has had 3 races 😂 looks like sains has put his foot down and decided to make a show of farrari

Don't think Mercedes would decide until they seen how everyone performs this season

Well my thoughts. I don't think Mercedes see George as there golden boy anymore. It's him who was pushing on keep developing the zero pod design, where Sir already did mention it was better to get away from it (remember the comments from him that they didn't listen to him in beginning 2023). So I'm expecting they (Mercedes) realize that and they will put an extra effort in getting Alonso. If Sainz would go to Mercedes think they will do it sooner then later (this swap) can you imagine, Ferrari asking in the race to Sainz, can you please let Leclerc pass by? That would be hilarious... The drivers can't help develop the car so it's just a year so it hits hard for both teams. I expect AM going for Sainz and Alonso to Mercedes. Don't think Sainz will go to pre Audi (or it's his only option). He never went for a team that he could lead so why would he now do so with a team what's probably fighting for second worse against Haas.

I think Red Bull would be mad to let him go to Merc. I think he ends up in Sergio's car come 2025.

I think that the best thing that could happen would be if Carlos and Hamilton seats swapped and the Mercedes started winning. Extremely unlikely, I know. But it would be fun.

Team up sainz and Alonso at Aston Martin and let Lance move on to the Valkyrie hypercar program that they're starting up in 2025.

I think max really doesn't care who his teammate is as long as they don't sabotage each other's race. He probably likes to be challenged with equal machineries

Carlos to Dale Coyne Racing if he can come up with some sponsorship money.

Wouldn't surprise me if he goes to Red Bull and takes Checko's spot.

Most probably Aston for Carlos if merc performs really good and last hope is Williams Or break of year till Audi or andretti appears

Russel is a good driver, but I believe that Mercedes will be a bad move for Carlos as Hamilton was the reason they got where they did last season. If it wasn't for Lewis, Fernando Alonso in the fucking Aston Martin would be P3 in standings.

The persona 5 music 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I feel like I am the only person that totally expected Lewis to go to Ferrari this year. Just seemed time

Whats up with the skype ahh music at the start.

Hey! Your voice is finally normal

Seb back in Merc, that would be cool. Same with Albon, give this boy a second chance!

You just had to mention stake

Carlos Sainz will be the brightest star in WEC

For carlos not moving anywhere stay there okay 😊😊

Is CL16 actually thick? 😂

Maybe a job as an operator?

straight switch. merc will sign sainz next week

I want him to replace where Lewis was. That's all I wish toto would think of.

why us the background music so loud and irritating

dont know why ferrari got rid of him for hamilton. sure, hamilton is better but hes gonna retire in 2 years. sianz is a longer term option and hes been getting great results regardless

Not a Ferrari fan but Sainz would have been a fit with Hamilton ⛳

The next prick that says Sainz was close to Max at Toro rosso without presenting facts about that I’m gonna yell in the comment section.. f’n Sainz had 5 f’n years in Single Seaters before Joining Toro Rosso,. Max had one season in European formula 3 before going to F1,, and yeah it was close at first but after that 4th in Hungary 2015 it was all over for Sainz ..Max had a string of top ten finishes.. and for Carlos to lose in equal machinery to a teenager without a real world driver license and little experience told you everything you needed to know..

he has nothing to worry about

I blame that Hamilton for being just too dam good all the time since he first started F1 2007

Carlos is underrated, but he’ll have a few options
