So, she's not the boss. Whoever owns the majority is the boss.

Sauber statement from Dec 3 said 'teams are flexible' & 'driver-specific changes are done quickly.' Lawyer now insists 2 wks for seat.


No problem in keeping those cars locked up in a Victoria police station for 2 weeks, then.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

BTW last year @SauberF1Team also forgot to tell SUT and VDG that NAS had been signed... 'What we have here is a failure to communicate!'

One wonders why @SauberF1Team did not tell the ERI or NAS camps what was happening...

Adam Cooper @adamcooperF1 · 57s 58 seconds ago
ERI/NAS lawyer says his drivers could face legal proceedings if they drive and deprive VDG of his seat. Judges laugh at suggestion.

Adam Cooper @adamcooperF1 · 2m 2 minutes ago
Judge asks ERI/NAS lawyer: "@SauberF1Team has binding contracts with three drivers, which one should they breach?" Straight to the point


The judge has had enough.

Verdict at 1630 today (630 CET). Don't they need to submit to the FIA their drivers for this weekend before 1600?

LOL, while Sauber says it's impossible to make a seat within a phew days. Manor is making one for Mehri just one day before first practice...

The sad thing is that F1 has a collective responsibility for what is happening here (but that will never be admitted). We can blame Sauber for mismanagement and greed, but if F1's finances and money allocation was being regulated in the fashion it should be then Sauber wouldn't have resorted to such desperate tactics to save itself.
