Sainz-Audi, Alunni Bravi considers Marko's words inappropriate

Sainz and the Audi court

It's no mystery that Audi has set its sights on Carlos Sainz for some time, believing that the Spanish driver has the ideal profile to be the point of reference for the German manufacturer. But the current competitiveness of the Sauber-Stake F1 team certainly does not play into the hands of the four ring company, which has important plans for its entry into the queen category of motor racing.

In recent days Helmut Marko he wanted to spice up the market a bit, explaining that Red Bull on Sainz was in a position where it couldn't “neither equal nor beat” the rich offer received by the Spaniard from Audi.

The denial of Alunni Bravi

The representative of Stake F1 responded to Marko's words, Alessandro Alunni Well doneduring China's press conference: “It would be improper to disclose offers made. And that's something we don't know, including offers made by other teams. I don't comment on speculation, each rider is talking to different teams to understand the situation“. And he concluded: “First we have to start scoring points, then we will talk to our drivers, keeping our eyes open on the market. But it is not appropriate to discuss or disclose potential ongoing discussions. Nobody really knows what other teams offer and we don't want to get involved in other people's games.”
