With Ferrari engines according to James Allen.

Hmm...but then Sauber had been in the game for a lot longer than Honda.
Thinking on it more, it is a bit like Saber/BMW Sauber in reverse. Big motor manufacturer sells to grassroots team and the they win, whereas another manufacturer buys grassroots team and starts to win.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
The FIA need to sort out the Toyota situation so that they can give Sauber the grid slot. There is a Serbian backed plan to buy/lease the Toyota facilities, team and 2010 car.
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/80357
What would you prefer on the grid ?
If it was about longevity and commitment I know which I would put my money on to be around in three years.
Thats the Swiss one.

Formula 1 drivers are superstitious.

LOL It seems that one of the criteria for become a F1 driver these days, is to be called Sebastian or Nico.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
Warning rumour alert
Renault to do a deal with Prodrive to take on the race team whilst the "factory"remains an engine supplier.
Source James Allen blog.
Got legs me thinks. Renault are launching electric cars and the top management are not F1 friendly.

Excellent news for Sauber by the way.
