The car, since the break, has just not been there for Sauber in general. Though to be fair the same could be said of Williams.
Belgium and Italy were weak tracks for them, Koba nearly managed to get into the top 10.

As for the strategy thing... the Sauber is notoriously easier on the Pirellis, I guess the team manager's adopted the "Button" strategy as a result.
 
Sauber are a team in Limbo. I cant see them getting better and may always be a midfield team. They also now seem to have Ferrari controlling thier driver contracts. Only hope is Telmex buy into the team and give it some ambition.
 
I never liked Mansell, but no one could say he was crap. It's taken a while to have 4 drivers capable of winning a WDC again like in the days of Senna, Prost Mansell & Piquet. Senna & Mansell had some titanic battles and Mansell was very unlucky not to be a double or even a triple WDC.
 
Erm, Spa? Somewhat brave of him to come back at Lewis, even if it did backfire...

He didn't. I think it looks like that because Hamilton brakes slightly early due to his higher than usual speed while Kamui takes his usual line, so it gives the illusion he's coming back at him, he just didn't expect Hamilton to suddenly move onto it. He even said he had no intention of coming back at Lewis, and why would he? what would be the point? He can't challenge the McLaren for pace
 
I'm not quite sure what's going on with Kobayashi.

But with regards to the original question, he died on the fifth lap of the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix. :(
