Valtteri Bottas hopes Mattia Binotto's arrival at Sauber will boost his chances of staying with the team in 2025.
Former Ferrari boss Mattia Binotto has been hired to oversee Sauber ’s transition into Audi as chief operating and chief technical officer, replacing outgoing CEO Andreas Seidl and chief representative Oliver Hoffman.’s decision to join Williams over the summer break, has seemingly come at a good time for Bottas, who reckons Binotto’s arrival has “reset” the team’s decision-making process over their sole-remaining 2025 seat.
Jack Doohan looks favourite to land the other vacant seat at Alpine, but 34-year-old Bottas insists his “priority” is being part of the Audi project.“Obviously there was one signing before me and the team and the management were looking for all the options with sometimes quite little communication. But now it feels a bit different. There’s been a clear reset and now there’s a clear structure at the top, who is doing what. I think that’s positive going forward.
Bottas added: “He knows me a little bit and now we’ve got to know each other better. We used to be competitors when I was at Mercedes and he was at Ferrari.
