Carlos Sainz Has Just Made a HUGE Mistake...

- A few months ago it looked like Carlos Sainz had free reign of the 2025 driver market, and could go pretty much wherever he wanted! Now that landscape looks completely different, and he might just be making a mistake that leaves him off the Formula One grid entirely...

Sainz has demonstrated such incredible skill and experience, especially in the last couple seasons. It'd be a real shame to see him pull a Ricciardo.
Nah it would be quite hilarious actually
@mikasr.5 why? He deserves a top seat mote than lewis does.
@@Gl-my8fw lewis has more WDC and WCC under his belt than carlos has wins I think lewis deserves a top seat
Cant really say he is doing a Ricciardo. Daniel ran from the challenge at RB (Max) to be #1 somewhere. Carlos wants a drive at RB, Merc or Ferrari and is looking to fight to be a #1.
@@NoxioLukas i don't get the whole running from the fight thing . ( yeah max is important player , but he is not the only factor ) drivers wants to be fighting for wdc not just win against max, just like these days. i get he took himself out of the redbull , because he knew MAX is the future and he is not going to get the preferable situation . ( he didn't want to be in the situation like bottas or perez , well perez is killing the situation by himself ) .
i get your point of view .but still think going to another team is better then always be chosen second. ( we can see that redbull curated max to be their future and bringing him in at such a young age shows their intentions very clearly ) .
Sainz, Danny and Bottas to do a TopGear style Amazon Car show.
Honestly would be golden, although would be picked up by some random streaming service like discovery+

Tonoight...
I sing Smooth Operator.
Danny drinks from his shoe.
And Valtteri paints nude pictures of himself.
1st minute highlights;
“About as exciting as counting the braincells on a Euro24 football pitch”
“British Gretha Thunberg”
“James Vowles throbbing scrotum at Williams”
Only to start the 2nd minute with;
“Mercedes are too busy fantasizing over a seventeen year old”
….this channel is comedy gold 😂🎉
Totally agree 👍
Nice opinion!
In summary: A JOKE 🤡
He's honestly amazing, but I'd say the F1 fanbase has degraded much lower than football at the moment so... I guess that remark about braincells was off. Not to mention this new generation of drivers, despite being rich, they seem quite uneducated and clueless regarding anything beyond F1.
dont forget the wank bank
Sainz better make a decision, or his next job for 2025 is posing for a nude calendar alongside Bottas. You can only read the tea leaves for so long...
That sounds like fun!
Yeah, nobody needs to see that. Sainz for Williams please.
Yeah, what is Carlos up to... it's not as if he's got Red Bull, Mclaren, Mercedes all vying for his services so he's min-maxing an option. And, I didn't realise there were any brain cells on a football pitch.
Merc said they would have him but they’re waiting until the end of the season and idk if Carlos has that much time to wait
@@harry4454 No they didn't lol. Mercedes has outright said the only way they'd sign Carlos is for a one year deal, and Sainz has been clear he will not settle for a one year. He's instigating a bidding war between Alpine and Williams and just wound up pissing Williams off so now they're talking to Danny Ricc too.
@@tiredacrobats Williams will not take Ricciardo at all lol. Go watch the toto interview with Brundle
If this is the case, I feel like Sainz has been let down by his management team, because they should have been hammering down Toto Wolff's office door until he signed Sainz.
Mercedes are not the first team to go down a developmental dead-end, and they have been showing (small) signs of improving even before this season, and it's not like the team has emptied out its expertise. The team prides itself on giving both drivers fair crack at results and I think Sainz would be a good fit for that kind of atmosphere; he's always worked well with teammates, never really rocked the boat and this season has shown his work-ethic by actually bothering to make an effort.
And Merc do seem to be in a much better position this season; the car is getting better and the team hasn't imploded the way Alpine have. So Hamilton's seat should (in my opinion) been at the very top of Sainz's wishlist and his management team should have done absolutely everything to get it.
I like Sainz a lot, he's a great driver, fantastic team-player but also an impeccable role model on how to conduct himself and so should at least be in a Top 6 team. Having to settle for Williams or Alpine, or out of F1 completely feels like a waste of his talents
Yeah, completely right. Merc seemed like his best option to me right when the LH news dropped. Who knows,maybe Merc has a firm no on Sainz nobody knows or talks about
Give Carlos a 1+1 year deal at Merc while Kimi hones his skills at Williams.
That’s a good idea, but Sainz rejected a deal with Mercedes
Sainz wants a permanent seat, not just a placeholder for someone else
Williams has no interest in doing so, same for Mercedes. Williams has it's own junior-roster, so there are 0 benefits of signing a junior from a different drivers program.
But it's so much funnier if they throw a half baked child into the seat and merc creates the disappointment of the decade
@@conorhiggins47 1 year mercedes to then join Audi would be a great way for him. Or maybe even resign with Ferrari if Hamilton actually doesnt perform there lol.
In an alternate universe, FP1Will is working at Williams alongside Sainz.
Honestly I got to the final 10 so it came very close… pretty happy where I ended up instead tho 😅
I dunno FP1Will as Williams PR man would have been fucking epic.
@@FP1WillSlandering off F1 drivers on the weekly 😅 I'd love that job 😂
Strange that he’s negotiating a one year deal at alpine when he reportedly turned down a one year deal a Mercedes.
I was thinking that. A one year deal at Merc would be perfect. Hope that comes to fruition
He wants to be at a big team. Mercedes are a big team, so he would want to be with them long term. A one year deal puts him in the exact same position again, since it shows they're likely to replace him so he'll be back looking for contracts in a year.
On the other hand, he wants a short deal at his next team, because if he's at a lower, midfield team, he's probably wanting to take a shorter deal so it's easy to hop over if a red bull, mercedes or McLaren seat opened up for whatever reason.
@@doormattby this logic wouldn’t he take the 1 year deal with merc and hope to resign with merc or move to redbull. Alpine while the most consistent midfielder the last few years is still objectively worse than merc. He also appears to want a merc engine going into the new regs. If he rejected 1 yr options from rb and merc and takes one at the end with alpine then that’s disappointing
Obviously the 1 year deal at merc was never on
@@mikieedwards7380and 1 year later he’s even older, so Merc is less likely to extend his contract

@@apilolomi4354 some kind of rightwing meme. Anti racism or climate sience isnt cool with the edgy bros
Antonelli's F2 results make it clear that he isn't ready for F1... yet. Let a customer team (Williams or Alpine?) run him and sign Sainz for two years.
Sainz likely has a lucrative deal waiting for him at Audi for 2026 and 2026 performance with new engines is anyones best guess. So Sainz wants to drive for them in 2026, but not in 2025 since the current Sauber team doesnt look like it is going to collect any points no matter which driver is in their cars.
Not Antonelli's fault that Prema shat the bed since the start of the season. Bearman's performance in F2 is similar, and look what he was able to do given a proper car in F1. I'm not saying they'll immediately fight for wins, but you have to keep in mind that Lance Stroll STILL has a seat in F1.
@@sebastianahrens2385 You can't bring Lance Stroll into this equation, his dad only bought AM so he could drive in F1
I would love to be the first to welcome Carlos Sainz to IndyCar...
Would love to see it but top seats have dried up unless Zak Brown wants to sign him as the 14th driver for his three care team.
“I am very smart. I will tell the billion dollar race franchises who can choose from 20 incredible drivers to stop rushing me”. But to be fair, very on brand Spanish 😂
There is an American saying for Carlos. Sh*t or get off the pot.
There's an almost identical saying in the UK too
@@zq3yp Yes they do.
@@bobroberts3968where 😭
@@zq3yp American here; yes, we do. :)
@@Ana-yc5ox correct me if I am wrong but it is my understanding, the proper UK saying is “Sh*te or get off the pot.”
It's insane that Strohl, Gasly, Bottas, and Perez have drives next year, and Sainz doesn't. Folks need to get fired over this.
Sainz has been offered several seats. He doesn't have a seat because he thinks he is hot stuff and can take his time. We'll see if he is right.
@LVQ-so5th he is hot stuff compared to the vast majority of the grid. He's the only driver that can hold a candle to Max and Norris. Ferrari let the wrong driver go.
He has had about 4 seats offered lol.
Most honest f1 CZcamsr. Love the vids brother x
I appreciate that!
I wasn't expecting Mega Man 2 music. Loved it 😆
Don't think he has the bargaining power he did a month or two ago
Sainz might end up in Haas, there's the Ferrari link there.
solution, loan doohan to williams for 1 year, sign sainz for one year at alpine, extend bottas one year, 2026 comes around, bottas sacked, sainz in at audi, doohan joins alpine and the rest can figure each other out and for the love of god let liam lawson get a seat next year.
Kimi needs to go to Williams doohan to alpine and sainz to merc riccardo to hass lawson to rb and Ollie bearman to hass
Will, now channeling his inner Mohawk.
I'm here for it.
Idk man I feel like everyone that wanted him before wants him now. If Mercedes wanted him, he would have already signed with them before. Same for Redbull.
Mclaren has 2 drivers already and all other teams are still just waiting for him to sign.
I think he should just suck it up and drive for Sauber until they turn Audi. He wont be having any great car either way in 2025. Currently the best looking one is maybe the Haas or the Alpine, but the midfield is so close it really doesnt matter. Sauber looked decently fast last race weekend as well just to look like the 2021 Haas in Austria again.
so yeah it doesnt matter. Just get yourself a seat at Sauber and suck up 1 year of driving in the midfield car (which you have to do anyway) which maybe is a little bit less competitive.
I mean loot at the AM right now. They looked great for Alonso and when he got there he was driving to some podiums, but now they are cruising at the back of the field again.. You cant predict it so it just doesnt matter.
Thing is, with the major new regs coming in 2026, (almost) any team could come out as a front runner, while currently dominate teams could easily get it wrong and slip back in the pack. It’s happened plenty of times before, so knowing where to go must be difficult.
Has it really though? New regs haven't had a major impact since 2009.
*Dale Coyne smashes through the wall like the goddamn kool-aid man*
nah it's gonna be Chip
@@harveyknguyenCheap Ganassi would never chase after Sainz because he's too much money while Sale Coyne will take anyone with money or sponsors.
I admire Dale so much for running his team for so long on a shoe string budget but imagine going from Ferrari to DCR. The day Carlos arrives on track for a test and sees Dale telling the crew to steal the catalytic converters out of other teams trucks to pay for a new set of tyres is going to be an eyeopener.
Williams is just waiting to announce the Sainz signing because they want to announce it at the same time as the Newey signing.
#Blessed is "the British Greta Thunberg" ....one of the best lines yet!!!! 🤣
I couldn't pay attention to what you were saying once Bubble Man's stage music started playing 😂
Carlos should just sign a multi-year deal with Williams with some opt-out clauses after a year. I don't understand why this is so hard to get done. Williams is the perfect backmarker team to sign with. You have James Vowles as Team Principal, who by all accounts seems to be one of the best equipped for that particular job. You have Albon as a teammate, a very good but beatable driver. The team itself has nowhere to go but upwards, and Carlos can be integral in making that happen. If he achieves even moderate success there, it will increase his stock significantly, and if he doesn't, then it's the car/team's fault.
And I don't care who Alpine brings into the organization, I still wouldn't trust them. Flavio certainly has the capability to turn that team around if given the control and resources, but the upper management have shown time and time again that they are the problem, and I'm not even sure the team will still be Alpine (or Renault-owned) 5 years from now. In fact, I'd be kind of surprised if it was. I also doubt Famin's ability to be a Team Principal, although maybe he deserves more time in the role before casting judgement.
What was the job you interviewed for at Williams? Great vid as always.
DUDE!!! I just found your channel today and I love it. Cheers
Welcome aboard!
You always manage to crack me up! Great job as always! Keep up the great work.
He's definitely putting a Ricardo.
I think Red Bull have been stringing Carlos along. There are constant rumors about RB wanting him back. When they signed Perez, Carlos probably decided to go with Williams, but now with Perez doing as Perez does, RB is possibly in talks with Carlos again. They could theoretically boot Perez to reserve driver status, but Carlos is putting too much faith in the team with the worst reputation for driver lineup shenanigans.
"But this is Formula 1. The sport is cutthroat and won't wait around for you to mind map your options if you are not careful"
...Unless you are Lance "Window Licker" Stroll who doesn't even need to mind map anything.
Finally a good video from you. Been waiting a while.
Has he considered leaving to go do a racing series that's actually enjoyable for the driver?
I can see it now: Logan Sargeant and Carlos Sainz at Prema in IndyCar....
4:52 I want to hear "Valteri, It's James" Again.
Williams rejected FP1Will?! Thats their first W in a long time
From Ferrari driver to Haas-been in one season
Sainz is at the "find out" part
Casually throwing in amazing 8bit music talking about a 2bit driver. Classic
As much as I think he deserves a seat, ngl it would be so fucking funny if he isn't in F1 next year 😂
I'm a fan of the smooth operator, but I'd kind of like to see Carlos in formula-e or even Indy. It is hard to have much sympathy for all these millionaires. They make more in one race than most of us will make our entire lives, and most of us can't even afford to see a whole race weekend. I say put some sort of limit/expiration on the super licenses, spread the wealth, and enjoy the excitement that would bring to the grid. I don't watch to see records broken or the constructor's championship (all the jelly beans!) anyway.
Hoping we end up with a giedo van de garde situation in Melbourne again 🤣
Fingers crossed!
Sainz for President...Sainz 2024.
Surprise FP1 content? What a glorious day!
I just hope he doesn't end up in Williams, so Drugovich may finally have a seat
I'm sure Zak Brown could offer him a contract at Arrow McLaren. Won't mean he gets to drive but hey, he gets a contract.
Problem is you can only tell people to wait so long before they grow tired. I like the description of Checo
Musical selection was absolute masterclass
Farreri made a huge mistake not Sainz
I think this is on him. He was practically guaranteed that someone would want him, but hes been messing around too many teams. If you're in F1 in a midfield team, you can still show your worth, if you're on the sidelines, you can't. Sainz belongs in a race winning team, but none is available, so really he should have signed for audi, give it 2 years, see how they do, keep driving well and then 2027 you have options potentially, that is, if audi don't hit the ground running and show future promise
Your humour is legendary 😂
That ending soundtrack, tho...
Sainz is better than most, he’s demonstrated that many a time. He may not have the quali pace that Charles has, but Charles constantly blows it under pressure when it counts. I know everyone predicts he will be a champion someday but I’m not as convinced.
I find it ridiculous that he’s in this position. I know the sport has been this way forever but this seems even worse than usual.
If Hulkenburg, Ricciardo and Albon can find a way back into the sport I’m sure Sainz will be able to as well

Deserves a top tier seat if he can continue.
For all this time I thought you had like a million subs. Guess i'm lazier at checking stuff than the Ferrari pit crew.
Can't believe you have so many patrons.
Will is the only F1 film maker that brings as much entertainment as the British football fans on a Netflix documentary.
Like wouldn't you think having Carlos on your team would be an asset to any of the teams? Get him so someone else doesn't...
As always love it
Thanks again!
Hey Williams, who's laughing now?
I mean comparatively you're doing better in the F1 CZcams field than they are in... F1.
what if he's waiting to know if andretti will get involved or not?
Won't happen next year. The plan was for 2026 and that got rejected. GM are losing interest so their main backing and power unit supplier is in doubt. F1 f-ed up big time with Andretti.
He's more reliable more mature less prone to complaining and whining about everything than LeBaby,Ferrari messed up and sent wrong one away..but boy howdy..Alpine?..is he retiring and wants a big payout?
lebaby??? dawg this isn't the NBA
I'd still like to see him at Red Bull in stead of Perez
If sainz can't get a ride, who else would want to see him go to Indy car?
It depends on who alpine is going to get their engines from. Imo that seat looks more appealing with a merc in the back rather than a Ferrari.
He should move to Alpine. Briatorri will get them fixed up ASAP. He’s a shark but he knows what he’s doing.
I’d rather him go to Williams than Alpine tbh💀 Tho to be fair I think Alpine has a better chance to fix their cars’ issues quicker than Williams
If no one else at the top is giving him a seat what else could he do..
Dakar Rallye, Indy Car and Le Mans 24h. Maybe do an Alonso, but he is not a world champion though.

Should've stayed at McLaren 🤷♂️
Alpine is a tractor. Sainz to RB. Checo not hitting performance marks in his contract.
i think he should of gone to merc for a year, would of been a good move for him
I don't think Sainz has any rush or teams would be signing drivers
wtf was bruh thinking? shoulda gone for Merc 🤦♂️
As soon as Ocon did what he did in Monaco, I thought Alpine would be calling Carlos for sure. I thought that would have been a good option for him, but now with all the engine uncertainty I’m not sure. If they buy their engines from Red Bull then 💯 Alpine would be a good choice for Carlos.
Excellent choice with the Mega Man 2 track(s).
Sainz is a top 5 driver on the ride and I hate that he’s in this position
3:00 I don't feel that bad anymore for getting rejected after doing to 2 rounds of interviews. I fit every top end qualification they wanted and asked for the bottom half of the listed salary range too.
Never a good thing to say about Hamilton poor guy
I say this mostly, but not completely, jokingly... Sainz for IndyCar.
Watch Mercedes announce him tomorrow😂
Hamlet couldn't make up his mind, and we all know how that ended. Good night, sweet prince.
When I first heard that Alpine are now an interesting option, I nodded quietly.
Then I thought back at past Renault and Alpine endeavours. They have been an internal clown fiesta for years, why go there before you truly know if they actually have the goods? There was easy Williams or even decent kick/Audi on the table, so why go French?
Priceless = British Greta Thunberg .... GOLD !!
