It’s worth noting that Sainz is receiving a lot of support from the home crowd. Being a local boy Sainz is making his final run at the track with Ferrari as he has been replaced by Lewis Hamilton for the upcoming seasons.
Fans and experts are constantly questioning Carlos Sainz’s future in Formula 1 as he is yet to get a seat for the 2025 F1 season. His two possible options are considered closed for now as Kimi Antonelli is likely to join Mercedes and Red Bull has extended Sergio Perez’s contract.
However, there have been various media reports that Sainz has signed a multi-year contract with Williams Racing but an announcement will be made after or during the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix. It will be interesting to see if Sainz announces his home track or not.

Meanwhile speaking about the same Sainz had said, “I have my options on the table. I’m going to make the decision soon, I want to get it out of my hands and stop thinking. There is not one option, there are several. For all the teams that do not have a driver, I am on their list. I have offers, but I am not going to sign tomorrow. I’ll think about the next team. I have a car to win and I want to focus on it.”
