- Ferrari driver won Australian GP but is yet to find team for 2025
- Horner: ‘You’ve had a very fast unemployed driver win today’
Christian Horner has given hope to an unlikely Red Bull reunion with Australian Grand Prix winner Carlos Sainz, after the Spaniard’s brilliant return from surgery in the third race of the Formula One season ended Max Verstappen’s nine-race winning run.
Sainz is set to move on from Ferrari at the end of this season due to the arrival of Lewis Hamilton, and ensured in Melbourne that he is one of the most in-demand drivers for 2025. After the 29-year-old took victory at Albert Park, following Verstappen’s early withdrawal due to a brake issue, Horner said Sainz had been Red Bull’s “nemesis” recently.
