BMW Sauber F1 is a Formula One team with bases in Hinwil, Switzerland and Munich, Germany. The team was formed at the end of 2005 by the takeover of the existing Sauber Formula One team by German car manufacturer BMW. The team scored two podium finishes and came fifth in 2006, its first season in Formula One. This was followed by a 2nd place in 2007 after the McLaren team had been excluded from the championship.
BMW Sauber has one clear aim for the 2008 season – scoring its first Formula 1 victory.
Two years of consistent progress since taking over perennial midfielders Sauber has resulted in the Munich manufacturer becoming F1’s third strongest team.
To do that this year, then it must make a significant step forward in performance for the third straight winter.
