(Sauber F1 Team)
The Sauber Formula One Team will earn a reported £50 million
thanks to their new driver line-up. The Swiss based outfit who failed to secure
a single point in 2014 confirmed following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that Felipe
Nasr and Marcus Ericsson would replace Adrian Sutil and Esteban Gutierrez at
the team this season.
Sauber have also confirmed that they have signed Scuderia
Ferrari Young Driver Academy graduate Raffaele Marciello as their official test
and reverse driver.
According to Blick newspaper the money comes from
sponsorship in the form of food packaging manufacturer Tetra Pak from Marcus
Ericsson while Felipe Nasr brings sponsorship from Banco Du Brasil.
The report also states that Marciello’s arrival at the
Sauber F1 Team will give the Swiss team discounted Ferrari power units for a
reported £10 million.
