Alpine Enters the Race: Carlos Sainz’s 2025 F1 Season Options Expand
A new Formula 1 team has surfaced as a potential destination for Carlos Sainz post-2024 season, after the Spanish Grand Prix.
Alpine has surfaced as an additional choice for Carlos Sainz as he deliberates on his future moves for the 2025 Formula 1 season.
According to Motorsport.com, Alpine has recently put forward an offer to secure Sainz for the upcoming season.
Crash.net has reached out to Alpine seeking a statement, but has not yet received a reply.
Up to this point, Sainz's choices were limited to either Sauber (Audi) or Williams, yet now it seems that Alpine has emerged as a potential option.
Alpine has yet to finalize their driver roster for the 2025 season following their announcement of ending their partnership with Esteban Ocon.
Pierre Gasly has yet to finalize his agreement with Alpine, but it's anticipated that he will continue with the Enstone-based team, especially in light of their recent upturn in performance.
Alpine is keen on returning Sainz to their Enstone base.
Sainz was behind the wheel for Renault for slightly more than a year, spanning from 2017 to 2018, before he
During the Barcelona weekend, Carlos Sainz Sr. was also spotted engaging in conversation with Flavio Briatore.
Briatore has been brought on board as a consultant for the team, contributing his extensive knowledge and skill set from Italy.
Acquiring Sainz would signal a bold move by Alpine, reflecting their performance this season.
Alpine began the season as the team with the least speed but has been consistently making improvements.
Gasly and Ocon secured points-scoring finishes on Sunday, propelling their team to the seventh position in the constructors' standings.
Sainz's choice for 2025 becomes even more complicated with the addition of a third alternative.
Sainz has the option to align with a factory team, specifically Alpine, at the moment. Yet, the French brand has not demonstrated any progress toward joining the frontrunners in a while.
Williams and Sauber might not be leading the pack, but the new regulations could play to their strengths.
Under the guidance of James Vowles, Williams is displaying promising signs of improvement, and the introduction of the Mercedes power unit in 2026 might elevate their position in the rankings.
Audi has shown interest in Sainz following their announcement to enter F1.
Becoming a part of Audi could prove to be highly profitable and would position Sainz at the forefront of a worldwide manufacturer.
Nonetheless, worries persist that Audi is lagging in the development of their engine technology, while Sauber's performance has been remarkably disappointing for the past ten years or more.
