Short nose replaces long 'duckbill' nose at Sauber

The centrepiece of Sauber's new package for Singapore is a short nose, the respected Swiss correspondent Roger Benoit claims. The struggling Swiss team has rarely updated its 2015 car this year, but a major aerodynamic package will be raced by Felipe Nasr and Marcus Ericsson in Singapore this weekend.

Benoit, writing in the Blick newspaper, said the most obvious change will be the disappearance of the long "duckbill" nose, replaced by a shorter one. "Our goal is to get the maximum out of this innovation," said Swede Ericsson. (GMM)

  • I wonder if it will improve their pace enough to be on par with it's competition. Sauber had a great start this year, would be fun if they could make a come-back.
