If Horner and Marko weren't intent on throttling each other Sainz would be a Red Bull driver next year. That said, the Sainz family and the Verstappens in the same space would be combustible to say the least!

Didn’t he say in an interview last week that they weren’t interested in him. I’d say it will be a year with Williams and then Audi when they join.
Red Bull, I can understand. They'd probably retain Perez, even if the choice was between him and Sainz, just not to upset Verstappen with a driver that would actually challenge him.
Lawson is the current favourite for that 2nd Red Bull seat but events over the next 2 weekends might change that picture again.
There's a long list already. I fancy one seat will go to an American driver (Colton Herta has been the favourite since the Andretti thing first surfaced, but have also heard Josef Newgarden's name bandied about, with Sargeant as a fall back in case those 2 can't get a superlicence). The other seat might go to a driver with a good few years of F1 experience so that would include Bottas, Ricciardo, Tsunoda, and anyone out of a drive for 2025.
