Carlos Sainz has batted away rumours his stay at Renault could be fleeting.
The Spaniard has moved from the Red Bull family to the works Renault team, as part of the complex deal that sees Toro Rosso switch to Honda power for 2018.
But Sainz, 23, is merely on ‘loan’, with Christian Horner insisting that he can be pulled away to Red Bull for 2019 if Daniel Ricciardo decides to leave.
When asked about that, Sainz fended off the question.
“I feel very good at Renault,” he told EFE news agency ahead of the Brazilian grand prix.
