What a future for Sainz
The 'transfer of the century', as the move to Ferrari – from 2025 – of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton has now been dubbed by many, has overshadowed the other side of the coin: Carlos Sainz's farewell to the Scuderia. In 2023, the Spaniard was the only driver capable of winning a GP without driving a Red Bull, but this was not enough to be able to reach an agreement with Ferrari that would allow him to extend his stay in Maranello beyond 2024.
Certainly now Sainz will have time to look around, also because the possible destinations – from the most 'prestigious' ones to others less glamorous – there is no shortage. According to many, his fate will be in Audi, following the path traced in the off-road by his father, winner of this year's Dakar. However, there is also no shortage of those who, jokingly, would directly like to make Carlos Jr. go to rallying career which gave his father so much satisfaction.
