FOM media will probably refer to them as "Stake Sauber" or something, but yeah let's just collectively call them Sauber please

I hate how advertising has infiltrated every damn aspect of this sport (and many others).

I remember watching a hockey game in the US for the first time, and they were talking about “the Lexus intermission report”. You what?! 🤨

Goddamn, Sauber really went fully into gambling sponsors

I guess with war criminals Aramco and Petronas being title sponsors for other teams, it could have been worse.

I like Alfa as a car manufacturer, sad to see them leave.

So sad to see the Alfa Romeo PR department leave. They contributed so much...

Alfa didn’t manufacture anything though, it’s a budget Ferrari with a Alfa Romeo paint job

Even worse than Racing Bulls.

Seems like Racing Bulls isn't a thing:
