Sauber Formula One

Another competitor for 3rd and 4th place in the championship?
Sauber are a stable team with a family atmosphere. They have the Petronas-badged Ferrari engine again this year. You can be sure that although it is a 1998 Monza-Spec V10 it will be a long way off the 048. Sauber signed Pedro Diniz for this season; a driver whom I think is underrated. He will partner Jean Alesi who will deliver his usual cocktail of good drives and off-course excursions, while Diniz might be a little slower but more consistent. Don't expect too many surprises here.
