Binotto explained the split with Bottas. The head of the Audi Formula 1 program (until the end of the 2025 season - Sauber) Mattia Binotto said that Valtteri Bottas was a very strong contender to retain his place in the team.
From next year, Gabriel Bortoleto will compete for Sauber.
Valtteri and I have been getting along very well since I started working here in August. We have a great relationship, it`s building, we trust each other and I think we have very good communication between us.
We have had several conversations about our journey, the length of the journey and the difficulties we may face in the coming seasons - we know that the coming seasons, when the team transforms into Audi, will be difficult. It`s a long road, and that`s basically why we thought about it, and I came to the conclusion that maybe we need a young pilot.
Everything was mutual - if not mutual agreement, but definitely a mutual understanding of the situation and requirements. I would like to emphasize that he was a very strong contender. He is very fast and has proven it, he is highly regarded in the team and in the paddock. The choice was not easy, but sometimes you have to come to a conclusion and make a decision, " Binotto said.
