Frederic Vasseur believes it is far too early to be talking about who will drive for the Sauber team when their relationship with Audi officially begins.
The German manufacturer will enter Formula 1 in 2026 in partnership with Sauber, which will become Audi's full works team. But it is understood they will be providing support behind the scenes before then, with current partners Alfa Romeo leaving the sport at the end of next season.
It would make sense for Audi to seek out a German driver, but they will be few and far between. Sebastian Vettel will have long since retired and there are few youngsters of note coming through the ranks right now, leaving Mick Schumacher as the only likely candidate.
