## Resource

Carlos Sainz HAD power in the driver market. He does not anymore. Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs Two years ago, Carlos Sainz had Williams, Audi and Alpine waiting for his decision. Now the whole thing has flipped. Every realistic route away seems to depend on somebody else moving first. Audi's happy with its drivers, Aston Martin depends on Fernando Alonso, and as for Alpine? It's got plenty of other things to sort out, including its car...and then there's Checo to consider too. #f1 #formula1 #carlossainz #williamsf1 #audi #astonmartin #alpinef1 #fernandoalonso #sergioperez #f1news #f1drivernews #f12027 #f1sillyseason #formulaone #f1drama #f1gossip #f1latest #f1updates Hosted on Acast.
