Our beloved Smooth Operator confirmed what we all suspected: Red Bull had the chance to sign one of the grid’s most underrated ASSASSINS… and they completely FUMBLED THE BAG!
Red Bull’s Reality Check That Hit Different
I spoke with Red Bull, but they didn’t want me,” Sainz admitted with brutal honesty that makes your soul hurt a little. Can you IMAGINE having to say those words? It’s like watching someone turn down a winning lottery ticket!
When asked if Max wanted him as teammate, Carlos delivered the most diplomatic non-answer in F1 history: “You’d have to ask him…”
TRANSLATION: “If you want that tea, ask Mad Max yourself because I’m not starting World War III!”
And Max could spill the tea, because he just say what he want and we love that
The “Sainz Effect” is REAL and It’s SPECTACULAR
But here’s the KICKER – Carlos explained the legendary “Sainz Effect”: every team he touches improves by 4-5 championship positions! Toro Rosso, Renault, McLaren, Ferrari – they ALL got the Sainz upgrade package and suddenly started performing like CHAMPIONS!
“Part coincidence, part not,” he says with scientific modesty. PART COINCIDENCE? Carlos, my guy, this is pure MAGIC at this point!
Red Bull’s Epic Strategy Blunder
So Red Bull looked at a driver who has NEVER been outperformed by a teammate in the championship, possesses proven team-building superpowers, and can wheel a car like he’s conducting a symphony… and said “nah, we’re good”?
There were rumors about the 2 sides not agreeing to contact lengh, but …
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
Meanwhile, Williams swooped in and secured the Smooth Operator. Result? Carlos and Albon are absolutely DEMOLISHING the midfield like they own the place!
