Sauber C34-Ferrari

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/117512

Well it's a radical new colour scheme for a fresh new start. See McLaren, it's not hard is it?

Looks OK this, quite pretty, nose is a bit long though.

Can't believe I have started two threads in two days.

Sauber go back to blue: a fresh new start or a reminder of better times? Either way I like it a lot and it does look fresh; not much in the way of sponsors, sadly, but that makes it look better, ironically.

 

Colour scheme looks a bit "My first F1 car" to me, all blocky primary colours without much finesse. At least it'll be easy to spot on track, it looks like nothing else.

 

Reminds me of a Ligier. I kinda like it.

Thought FIA changed rules to stop noses like that?

 

They tried. I don't think it worked.

 

Could have tried a bit harder on the paint scheme.

 

That's a biggun

 

I actually like it. Got a nice retro feel to it.

 

Compared to most other 2015 cars I've seen so far, this years' Sauber looks much more like a series of adaptations to accommodate changes in regulations. I'm pleased about the changed livery but like Bhaji, I'm a bit surprised they've gone for such a 'French' blue!

 

Was exactly what i thought at first too!

 

The blue is too glossy and the whole thing like a plastic toy.

 

Exactly how an F1 car should look. Like you can pick it up and drop it on a Birthday cake.

 

Sauber driver Giedo van der Garde wins court case to claim race seat

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/31828900

 

Sauber are appealing.

 

What if Sauber forget to put fuel in his car?

 

Then their sponsors get no air time! Must be very tricky for Sauber, they have 2 pay drivers and a court order saying that a third driver must drive one of their cars. So at a guess which ever of Saubers preferred drivers sits out the race might be able to sue the team for a breach of contract All very messy. It was reported (judge13) that Saubers lawyers 'thought the racing started Thursday', They seemed to also forget that Pedro literally jumped in one of their cars with an hour or so's notice still in his McLaren overalls on, no safety issue on that occasion. Plus Saubers layer tried to argue that 'Giedo van der Garde does not have a valid Superlicense' then after he produced paperwork proving he did they then tried to say 'well he shouldn't have!' .
What a mess!!!!!
I wonder how long it will be before Monica has to resign?

 

I hope Nasr doesnt lose out. I dont mind about Ericsson. Anybody know which of the 2 has brought the most cash?
