After a scintillating first half of the season at AlphaTauri, in which he was largely on his own, Pierre Gasly may now be looking at a return to flagship Red Bull Racing. In an interview with Autosport the Frenchman says the decision is not in his hands, but that he expects to hear the decision soon.

The one-time Grand Prix winner says he wants to "see what happens" regarding a possible return as Max Verstappen's teammate. "I think it's pretty clear on my end, it's in Red Bull's hands."

The Frenchman continued: "Max is signed for next year in the top team, Sergio I think has a one-year contract, so we'll see what happens there and then what we do going forward together."

Answers to follow soon

Gasly also believes that a definitive answer will not have to wait long, at the latest after the summer break. "I'm obviously contracted with them for some more time, and I'm pretty confident we should get some answers at some point during the summer break, or after the summer break", the driver said.
