If Red Bull wants me, they have the contract, they have the option and they execute it and I have to stay.<\/p>\n<p>Click Here: <a href='https:\/\/www.realivegolf.com\/golf-golf-clubs' title='Cheap Golf Golf Clubs'>Cheap Golf Golf Clubs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I don\u2019t know if there were other possibilities, to be honest I don\u2019t want to care too much about it. I just know that Red Bull really wants me to be with them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes it\u2019s true that the senior team is a bit too crowded at the moment so I will have to wait, but I\u2019m convinced that if I keep doing good races they will make me a seat and they will find an option for me. I just need to keep doing what I\u2019m doing, focusing on myself, getting strong results and opportunities will come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And Sainz says there are still a number of years until he will be completely free to make his own choices about his future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I have another two or three years where they can keep exercising this option. As Helmut Marko said not that long ago, of course I can leave the program and everything but they would need to pay a lot of money to get me and obviously he\u2019s always going to execute this option if he can. Especially if he likes me like I think he does.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So at the moment I don\u2019t have much of an opinion or a reaction to this. For me to have the confidence of a character like Helmut Marko &#8211; who we all know how tough he is on everything &#8211; for one more year on everything so early in the season is great confidence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It gives me a big boost also for the rest of the season to know I am quite safe in such a tough program and I think from now on I can drive a bit more calmly knowing that next year I will be in a team for sure, like Toro Rosso.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Exclusive Daniel Ricciardo Q&amp;A: &#8216;I&#8217;m also the real deal!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Chris Medland&#8217;s 2016 Austrian Grand Prix preview<\/p>\n<p>Exclusive Felipe Massa Q&amp;A on a Williams resurgence and his future<\/p>\n<p>Romain Grosjean interview: I can stop Haas sliding<\/p>\n<p><em>Keep up to date with all the F1 news via\u00a0Facebook\u00a0and\u00a0Twitter<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carlos Sainz says he has &#8220;no power&#8221; over whether he stayed at Toro Rosso or moved to another team as Red Bull has contractual options on him.
