Sergio has a massive Mexican telecom giant Telmex as a sponsor behind him. I think that probably helps a lot.
- Red Bull isn’t strapped for cash tough.
This was always the case. If it was purely on merit basis, tsunoda would be in that car already. This is assuming they want promote from within because there are better options outside the red Bull family
- And within, Sainz is still available and is an RDA driver
  
  Hmm this is true. Though I don't think they see him as a RB driver academy driver now and see him more like an outside option
  
  Sure but Carlos Sr and Jos still hate each other's guts.
