Sauber's 2010 season guaranteed despite not signing a title sponsor yet
|
10 March 2010 @ 08:00 GMT - Max Moore The Sauber team won't have a new major sponsor at this weekend's Bahrain race sources said on Wednesday. The team was optimistic that a deal would be announced at this weekend's race. The team's owner Peter Sauber reportedly said that the C29 will not feature a lot of sponsorship logos. "After the withdrawal of BMW and the takeover of the team, the time was simply too short for us to find a partner or principal sponsor," he told a Swiss newspaper. Despite not having a title sponsor the team has the finances to compete this year. Sauber said that sponsors will however make the development of the car easier. "We only had confirmation of the 13th team entry in December so concrete negotiations (with backers) could only start very late. Nevertheless, the 2010 season for us is guaranteed, even though the more sponsors we have, the more we can invest in the development of the car," he said. |
