If they wanted a complaisant second driver willing to follow team orders, maybe don't start with telling that driver he's gone at the beginning of the season? Why should Sainz yield to Leclerc, he needs to stay performing and ensure he's impressing other potential teams.

And honestly with how the musical chairs are looking, it's totally possible he'll finish 3 or 4 in championship and still miss out on a seat next year.

It's an open secret in the paddock that Carlos is destined for Williams, so I don't foresee him being out of a drive, just not Ferrari obviously.
