Franco Colapinto, Argentine Formula 1 driver, could be on the radar of the Racing Bulls team as a reinforcement for the 2025 season. Colapinto's potential move to Red Bull has sparked interest in the motorsport world, as he has reportedly been offered a contract to join one of the top teams in Formula 1.
According to reports from Sky Sports Italy, Red Bull has proposed to Colapinto to become part of their team. However, for this to happen, Red Bull would have to part ways with Mexican driver Sergio Pérez, who has not performed well this season.
If his arrival at Racing Bulls materializes, Colapinto would not integrate directly into Red Bull's main team but rather into their second brand. Helmut Marko, head of the team, mentioned that the main obstacle is that Colapinto has a long-term contract with Williams. This would open the possibility for Colapinto to occupy a spot at Racing Bulls alongside Yuki Tsunoda if discussions progress positively.
James Vowles, head of Williams, was consulted about Red Bull's interest in Colapinto and mentioned that discretion is essential during sensitive negotiation times. Colapinto, who has already participated in four Grands Prix this season, would not be able to continue with Williams in 2025 due to the seats already assigned to Alexander Albon and Carlos Sainz Jr.
Colapinto's future in Formula 1 depends on these ongoing negotiations between Red Bull, Williams, and Racing Bulls. Although his possible arrival at Racing Bulls is not yet official, the interest in the young Argentine driver has generated excitement in the world of Formula 1.
