40 years of Sauber Motorsport – a tale of the unexpected - the story (written in 2010)

The German Grand Prix at Hockenheim on 25th July will see Sauber Motorsport celebrate 40 years of racing. The C29 cars of Pedro de la Rosa and Kamui Kobayashi will bear an appropriate inscription, and a photo gallery is now online in the media section of www.sauber-motorsport.com.

Peter Sauber had not shown any particular interest in cars, and none at all in driving them around a track. Indeed, even today he views cars as no more than a means of getting from A to B. And yet Sauber Motorsport is set to celebrate 40 years in the motor racing business. A story which began largely by chance was backed up by impressive perseverance and later driven by the virtues of hard work and considerable skill.

Sauber appeared to have his future mapped out for him. His father owned an electrical engineering company employing around 200 people which had premises in Zurich and on Wildbachstrasse in Hinwil. The young Peter qualified as an electrician with the aim of completing further training before following in his father’s footsteps. However, things were to turn out rather differently.

Back in 1967, Sauber used to travel to work in a VW Beetle. That was until a friend talked him into having some tuning work done on the car. Later that year Sauber entered the Beetle in a handful of club races for a bit of fun. Far more importantly, however, the experience sparked his interest in tinkering with cars. Indeed, his modification work on the Beetle reached the point where the car could no longer be registered for road use. This brought Sauber to the next stage in his motor sport career: in 1970 he set himself up as an independent maker of open two-seater racing sports cars. He designed the Sauber C1 in the cellar of his parents’ house in Zurich and used the first letter of his wife Christiane’s name as the model designation for the car.

The same year he founded PP Sauber AG and moved into a specially built workshop on his father’s company’s site in Wildbachstrasse. In 1970 he won the Swiss sports car championship with the C1, but soon decided to reduce his appearances at the wheel to occasional competitive outings. In 1974 he pulled on his helmet for the final time, before retiring from the cockpit to focus all his attention on building cars rather than driving them. The “C” was retained as a Sauber trademark.

Sauber had not chosen an easy path to go down; making a living from building racing sports cars in Switzerland seemed like mission impossible. But for Sauber that was no reason to wave the white flag, and he battled on doggedly. Working days often extended deep into the night and money was tight.

It was with the C5, which Herbert Müller drove to victory in the then prestigious Interserie championship in 1976, that Sauber came to international prominence. This was followed by his first attempts at Le Mans, by which time Sauber Motorsport had four employees on the payroll. In 1981 Hans-Joachim Stuck and Nelson Piquet drove a Sauber-built Group 5 BMW M1 to victory in the 1,000-kilometre race at the Nürburgring.

The following year was a defining one for Peter Sauber. He was commissioned by Swiss composite materials specialists Seger & Hoffmann to build a car for the Group C World Sports Car Championship. The result was the Sauber C6. It was during this period that initial contact was made with Mercedes engineers who were interested in motor sport. The relationship was very much on a private basis, of course, since international motor racing was still a taboo subject at the Stuttgart-based manufacturer following the tragic accident at Le Mans in 1955.

Sauber powered his racing sports cars with Mercedes engines from 1985, bringing the team closer still to Stuttgart. And just a year later Henri Pescarolo and Mike Thackwell drove a Sauber C8 to victory in the 1,000-kilometre race at the Nürburgring. More triumphs followed, eventually persuading Mercedes to return to international motor sport. From 1988 Sauber acted as Mercedes’ official works team. The partnership reached its zenith in 1989, a one-two in the legendary Le Mans 24-hour race backed up by the Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ titles in the World Sports Car Championship. A year later the team repeated its success in the World Sports Car Championship. Sauber Motorsport had now expanded to some 50 employees.

This period also saw the establishment of the junior team, an idea of Sauber’s then business partner Jochen Neerpasch. Michael Schumacher, Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Karl Wendlinger were selected for the team. Peter Sauber helped all three to take the step up into Formula One.

With the lustre of the World Sports Car Championship beginning to fade, Mercedes set its sights on Formula One and, in summer 1991, F1 was declared a joint project. Preparations hit full swing and Sauber built a new factory at its premises in Hinwil.

However, bad news was on its way that November. The challenging economic climate at the time caused the Mercedes Board of Management to decide not to enter Formula One with a works team. Sauber was left with two options: pocket the financial settlement and turn its back on racing or use it as start-up capital for its own grand prix operation. In January 1992 Sauber decided to take the plunge, and in autumn that year the C12 completed its first testing session, an Ilmor engine providing the power. By that time the company was employing just under 70 people.

On 14th March 1993, two Sauber C12 racers – piloted by Karl Wendlinger and JJ Lehto – lined up, as planned, on the grid at Kyalami for the South African Grand Prix. The two World Championship points earned by Finnish driver Lehto for fifth place in the race ensured the team’s debut was a widely acclaimed success. Contracts signed with Red Bull and Petronas in 1995 gave the Swiss team a solid foundation and allowed it to establish itself as a fixture in Formula One. In 1995 and 1996 Sauber served as the Ford works team, and from 1997 the cars were powered by Ferrari engines and carried the name of title sponsor Petronas.

However, the crucial breakthrough remained elusive. That was until 2001, when three milestones in the team’s history arrived in quick succession: the partnership with major Swiss bank Credit Suisse, a fourth-place finish in the F1 Constructors’ World Championship in mid-October and, just a few days later, the groundbreaking ceremony for the team’s own wind tunnel.

Peter Sauber chose this time to introduce fresh blood into Formula One, bringing Kimi Räikkönen and Felipe Massa into the team. Sauber later recommended Robert Kubica to the powers-that-be at BMW.

In 2005, and now in his early sixties, Peter Sauber decided to explore ways of passing on his life’s work into good hands. An offer from BMW appeared to tick the right boxes. The Munich-based manufacturer, who had been working in F1 with Williams since 2000, was keen to line up with its own works team. On 22nd June 2005 BMW announced that it had acquired a majority stake in the Swiss team.

2008 – the third year of the BMW Sauber F1 Team – was the next high point in Sauber’s history. The development of the team in Hinwil was now complete and the workforce had grown to over 400. The team set itself the goal for the year of recording their maiden victory. That first win duly arrived in the form of a one-two, Kubica leading Nick Heidfeld across the line in Canada. The BMW Sauber F1 Team notched up a total of 11 podium finishes in 2008. Kubica clinched the team’s first pole position in Bahrain and Heidfeld added its first two fastest race laps to the honours board. The team finished the season in third place in the World Championship with 135 points.

A difficult start to 2009 was followed on 29th July by a piece of news that sent shockwaves through the team: at a press conference in Munich BMW announced that it was withdrawing from Formula One at the end of the season. The company bowed out of F1 with 36 points and sixth place in the World Championship in its final season.

The next press conference took place on 27th November 2009, this time in Hinwil. Peter Sauber had reached agreement with BMW and bought the team back from the carmaker. However, the joy was tinged with sadness. Prior to the agreement BMW had decided to reduce the size of the team, and the number of employees was cut from 388 to 260. It was with this slimmed-down workforce that the Hinwil-based team prepared for the 2010 season, powered by engines supplied by Ferrari and with drivers Kamui Kobayashi and Pedro de la Rosa at the wheel.

40 Jahre Sauber Motorsport – Es kam alles anders - Die Geschichte

Anlässlich des Grossen Preises von Deutschland in Hockenheim am 25. Juli begeht Sauber Motorsport sein 40-jähriges Bestehen. Die beiden C29 von Pedro de la Rosa und Kamui Kobayashi werden einen entsprechenden Schriftzug tragen, und im Medienbereich von www.sauber-motorsport.com steht bereits jetzt eine Bildergalerie zur Verfügung.

Für Autos hatte sich Peter Sauber nicht speziell interessiert und schon gar nicht für den Rennsport. Autos sind für ihn heute noch ein Mittel, um von A nach B zu gelangen. Dass Peter Sauber nun das 40-jährige Bestehen von Sauber Motorsport feiern kann, hatte in der frühen Phase vor allem mit Zufall, dann aber mit ausgeprägtem Durchhaltewillen und später mit viel Arbeit und Geschick zu tun.

Peter Saubers Vater besass ein Unternehmen für elektrotechnische Anlagen mit rund 200 Mitarbeitern, deren Räumlichkeiten sich in Zürich sowie an der Wildbachstrasse in Hinwil befanden. Der Weg von Peter Sauber schien vorgezeichnet. Er absolvierte eine Ausbildung als Elektromonteur mit dem Ziel, sich weiterzubilden und dann in die Fussstapfen seines Vaters zu treten. Doch es kam alles anders.


1967 fuhr Peter Sauber mit einem VW Käfer zur täglichen Arbeit. Bis ihn ein Freund dazu überredete, diesen tunen zu lassen. Damit beteiligte sich Peter Sauber 1967 dann zum Spass an ein paar Club-Rennen. Was aber viel wichtiger war: Seine Lust am Basteln wurde geweckt. Er veränderte den Käfer so stark, dass dieser letztlich die Strassenzulassung verlor. Das führte zum nächsten Schritt. 1970 entschied Peter Sauber, sich mit dem Bau von offenen, zweisitzigen Rennsportwagen als selbstständiger Unternehmer zu etablieren. Im Keller des Elternhauses in Zürich entstand der Sauber C1. Als Typenbezeichnung wählte Sauber den ersten Buchstaben des Vornamens seiner Ehefrau Christiane.


Noch im gleichen Jahr gründete er die PP Sauber AG und bezog die eigens dafür gebaute Werkstatt auf dem Firmenareal seines Vaters an der Wildbachstrasse. Mit dem C1 gewann er 1970 den Schweizer Meistertitel bei den Sportwagen, beliess es dann aber bald bei vereinzelten Auftritten als Rennfahrer. 1974 stülpte er den Helm zum letzten Mal über und verlegte sich nun ganz aufs Konstruieren. Das „C“ als Markenzeichen wurde beibehalten.


Sauber hatte sich keine einfache Aufgabe gestellt. In der Schweiz vom Bau von Rennsportwagen zu leben, schien ein Ding der Unmöglichkeit. Aber das war für Sauber noch lange kein Grund, aufzugeben. Er biss sich durch. Arbeitstage endeten oft spät in der Nacht. Das Geld war knapp.


Internationale Beachtung fand Sauber durch den C5, mit dem Herbert Müller 1976 die damals prestigeträchtige Interserie gewann. Es folgten erste Einsätze in Le Mans. Sauber Motorsport hatte mittlerweile vier Mitarbeiter.1981 gewannen Hans-Joachim Stuck und Nelson Piquet auf einem von Sauber gebauten BMW M1 nach Gruppe-5-Reglement das 1000-Kilometer-Rennen auf dem Nürburgring.


Das folgende Jahr war ein entscheidendes für Peter Sauber. Er erhielt vom Schweizer Kunststoffunternehmen Seger & Hoffmann den Auftrag, ein Fahrzeug für die Sportwagen-Weltmeisterschaft (Gruppe C) zu bauen. Es wurde der Sauber C6. In dieser Zeit entstand der Kontakt zu Ingenieuren bei Mercedes, die sich für das Thema Rennsport interessierten. Ganz privat natürlich, denn beim Stuttgarter Automobilhersteller war internationaler Motorsport seit dem schweren Unfall in Le Mans 1955 tabu.


Ab 1985 verwendete Sauber in seinen Rennsportwagen Mercedes-Motoren und rückte damit Stuttgart noch ein bisschen näher. Bereits ein Jahr später gewannen Henri Pescarolo und Mike Thackwell auf einem Sauber C8 das 1000-Kilometer-Rennen auf dem Nürburgring. Weitere Erfolge kamen hinzu, was letztlich Mercedes zur Rückkehr in den internationalen Motorsport bewog. Ab 1988 war Sauber offiziell Werksteam von Mercedes. Höhepunkt dieser Partnerschaft war das Jahr 1989, in dem man nicht nur die Sportwagenweltmeisterschaft für Fahrer und Teams gewann, sondern auch beim legendären 24-Stunden-Rennen in Le Mans einen Doppelsieg feierte. Ein Jahr später konnte der Gewinn der Weltmeistertitel wiederholt werden. Sauber Motorsport war auf rund 50 Mitarbeiter angewachsen.


In diese Zeit fiel auch die Gründung des Junior-Teams, eine Idee vom damaligen Sauber-Geschäftspartner Jochen Neerpasch. Die Wahl fiel auf Michael Schumacher, Heinz-Harald Frentzen und Karl Wendlinger. Allen dreien hat Peter Sauber den Einstieg in die Formel 1 ermöglicht.


Weil der Stern der Sportwagen-WM zu sinken begann, orientierte sich Mercedes in Richtung Formel 1. Im Sommer 1991 wurde sie zum gemeinsamen Projekt erhoben, die Vorbereitungen liefen auf Hochtouren. Sauber baute auf dem Firmengelände in Hinwil eine neue Fabrik.


Doch bereits im November kam die Hiobsbotschaft. Wegen des schwierigen wirtschaftlichen Umfelds entschied sich der Mercedes-Vorstand gegen einen werksseitigen Einstieg in die Formel 1. Sauber hatte zwei Optionen: Sich mit einer finanziellen Abfindung zurückzuziehen oder diese als Startkapital für die Formel 1 zu nutzen. Im Januar 1992 entschied er sich zum Sprung ins kalte Wasser. Im Herbst fanden die ersten Testfahrten mit dem C12 statt, der von einem Ilmor-Triebwerk befeuert wurde. Knapp 70 Mitarbeiter zählte das Unternehmen damals.


Am 14. März 1993 standen in Kyalami wie geplant zwei Sauber C12 für Karl Wendlinger und JJ Lehto am Start zum Grossen Preis von Südafrika. Mit dem fünften Rang des Finnen und zwei WM-Punkten wurde die Premiere ein gefeierter Erfolg. Verträge mit Red Bull und Petronas bildeten ab 1995 ein solides Fundament und erlaubten dem Schweizer Team, sich als feste Grösse in der Formel 1 zu etablieren. In den Jahren 1995 und 1996 war Sauber Werksteam von Ford, ab 1997 fuhr man mit Ferrari-Motoren, die den Namen des Titelsponsors Petronas trugen.


Der Durchbruch liess noch auf sich warten. Dann aber folgten 2001 drei Höhepunkte in der Teamgeschichte Schlag auf Schlag: die Partnerschaft mit der Schweizer Grossbank Credit Suisse, der Mitte Oktober feststehende vierte Rang in der Konstrukteurs-WM und wenige Tage später der erste Spatenstich zum eigenen Windkanal.


In dieser Zeit brachte Peter Sauber auch frisches Blut in die Formel 1: Er holte Kimi Räikkönen und Felipe Massa in sein Team und empfahl später den Verantwortlichen bei BMW auch Robert Kubica.


Im Jahr 2005, mittlerweile über 60 Jahre alt, suchte Peter Sauber nach einem Weg, sein Lebenswerk in starke Hände zu geben. Ein Angebot von BMW schien die Lösung. Der Automobilhersteller, der seit der Saison 2000 mit Williams am Start war, wollte ein eigenes Werksteam. Am 22. Juni 2005 verkündete BMW die Übernahme von Mehrheitsanteilen am Schweizer Team.


Das dritte Jahr des BMW Sauber F1 Teams, die Saison 2008, wurde zum nächsten Höhepunkt der Teamgeschichte. Mittlerweile war der Ausbau in Hinwil abgeschlossen, der Personalstand betrug nun über 400 Mitarbeiter. Für 2008 hatte man sich den ersten Sieg zum Ziel gesetzt. Es wurde gleich ein Doppelsieg. Robert Kubica gewann in Kanada vor Nick Heidfeld. Insgesamt schaffte das BMW Sauber F1 Team 2008 elf Podestplätze. In Bahrain holte Kubica die erste Poleposition, Heidfeld steuerte die ersten beiden schnellsten Rennrunden zur Statistik bei. Das Team wurde am Ende mit 135 Punkten WM-Dritter.


Nach einem schwierigen Start in die Saison 2009 folgte am 29. Juli eine schockierende Nachricht: BMW verkündete anlässlich einer Pressekonferenz in München den Ausstieg aus der Formel 1 zum Saisonende. Mit Platz sechs in der Weltmeisterschaft (36 Punkte) verabschiedete sich BMW aus der Formel 1.


Am 27. November 2009 fand die nächste Pressekonferenz statt, diesmal in Hinwil. Peter Sauber hatte sich mit BMW geeinigt und sein Lebenswerk wieder zurückgekauft. Die Freude war getrübt, denn BMW hatte zuvor bereits entschieden, Personal abzubauen. Von damals 388 Mitarbeitern wurde auf 260 reduziert. Mit diesem Personalbestand, mit Ferrari als Motorenpartner und den Piloten Kamui Kobayashi und Pedro de la Rosa nahm die Hinwiler Mannschaft die Saison 2010 in Angriff.

Sometimes when there are differences, compromise is possible. However, in a situation about which you have strong views, you doubt whether you there's anything to discuss, and still less, change. Nevertheless, it's worth talking things over. You might be surprised where and how both you and others can make accommodations.
.
Your tolerance for others` foibles is a real virtue. Yet what certain individuals are infuriating you. This particularly involves those individuals who say one thing, then manoeuvre behind the scenes. Worse, you`re facing this in several situations. Confronting them would only make it worse. But happily you`ve the current unsettled circumstances on your side. Whatever others do, unexpected events will simply undo those efforts.
