Franco Colapinto Denies Contact with Red Bull
Williams driver Franco Colapinto, from Argentina, denied on Sunday that he has received any offer from Red Bull.
"I don’t have any seat for next year yet. I’ll be in a different category, not Formula, because there’s currently no seat available,” he said after finishing twelfth in the Mexican Grand Prix. Colapinto expressed his happiness at racing in Mexico, where many Argentine fans cheered him on.
“It’s such a pride to have so many people from my country in the stands, cheering, along with Mexican and Latin American fans. Next week in Brazil, I’m sure there’ll be the same support from Argentinians and Brazilians. I’m grateful for all of this,” said the driver in his first season in Formula racing.
Reflecting on his performance in Mexico, he noted a positive outcome. “Overall, I’m happy with the pace—it’s a tough track for overtaking, and it was a challenging race. Now, it’s time to focus on Brazil, which is just a few days away,” he added.
