Toro Rosso's Carlos Sainz knows that it will be difficult for him to stay at Toro Rosso for a fourth year, as the Spaniard looks to make his way to a more competitive team. Sainz debuted in Formula 1 in 2015 for Toro Rosso and has been with the team ever since.
With Red Bull looking to hold on to both Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen, it's unlikely that Sainz will get a Red Bull call-up for next season. He has recently become a target of McLaren and Renault, however, he knows that his future lies in the hands of Helmut Marko and Red Bull.
"It's no secret that my sporting career depends on Helmut Marko and Red Bull," he admitted. "But I do not think that will affect my future. I do not close the door to anyone but I know that a fourth year in Toro Rosso is extremely difficult because it's never been done before.
"I also think both Red Bull and I want to take a step forward," Sainz added. "It would be stupid to close the door to any F1 team, but I do not hide that my goal is to take a step, and if that step is Red Bull or elsewhere, I don't know yet."
