I take it this is fan art or a concept artwork?

A few things I don't get from the Sauber launch. Why was Sergio Marchionne making all the announcements on the changes? Why wasn't it Fred Vasseur? It's Sauber F1 after all.
Why did Jean Todt and Chase Carey feel they had to be at the launch? Will they be present for the launch of the other teams? Alfa Romeo is just the title sponsor. Similar to Aston Martin being the title sponsor at Red Bull. Why on earth did they keep Marcus Ericcsson? Vasseur said he will make the driver choice based on the best drivers who will perform the best for the team. If so then Wehrlein should've been the better choice surely. |

Bad move to keep Ericsson, he hasn't performed as well as he should. Glad to see Leclerc in though, first GP2 champion to go straight to F1 since Grosjean. Feel sorry for Wehrlein though

Maybe they will give Ericsson a few races and if he is underperforming swap Gio in for him? Unless Haas do make a change first of course. Or even Ferrari.

Well, as the first was made up, sorry a concept, by a magazine and the other a concept by the actual team maybe you are on to something there.

Mainly were in the scheme in 2001 with Thomas Biagi as contender, on the days Felipe Massa won his Italian F3000 title for Draco, just before his F1 debut with Sauber. Don't know if that could count as an answer. Last edited by Mekola; 3 Dec 2017 at 01:53. |

Wehrlein scored all of Saubers points. Ericsson scored none, and is the only driver to do the entire 2017 season and not score a single point.

But Ericsson's performance out of the car in financial terms means Sauber still exist and can go racing in 2018. When they said "perform the best for the team", they didn't mean on the track. Completely correct statement, whether we agree with the choice or not. |

The proposed livery on the Alfa Sauber looks alright so far, although the artist's impression looks like a mid 70s Brabham

Weird that isn't it? Spend all that cash keeping a mediocre driver in F1 and don't cover every available surface with your logos. Makes you wonder exactly what they're getting from their F1 involvement.

I really wonder, though, whether they truly get a decent ROI, if they get one at all! |
