Briatore believes that Sainz made a mistake in choosing the team.

      Last year, Carlos Sainz spent several months choosing from several offers and eventually signed a contract with Williams. Alpine advisor Flavio Briatore, who wanted to see the Spanish rider in the team from Enstone, believes that Sainz made the wrong choice.

      In the fourth episode of the new season of the documentary series Drive to Survive, Briatore says, "I need a racer for 2025. I need Carlos. I've known him since childhood, and we've always had a great relationship, especially with his father. I told my father that, most likely, one day we will work together.

      Carlos thinks Alpine is not a good enough option for him. He thinks Williams is much better. Well, everyone makes mistakes."
