Sauber in the 2010 season will take the higher ridges of the grid in Formula 1, 26 and 27, after the FIA decide to reject the claim of the team in relation to the numbers that correspond to BMW Sauber have continued in competition.
The Hinwil based team lost its dorsal to not appear at first provisional list of the FIA last November and must comply with 26, to wear the Japanese Kamui Kobayashi, and 27 (which corresponds to Pedro de la Rosa) .
“I think my experience is a huge advantage. You do not gain experience in a few months or a year. Over the years experience is gained and what I can bring to the club,” said De la Rosa, who will compete officially after a long time in the team McLaren.
“I want to help my teammate Kamui (Kobayashi) because it is fast, young and inexperienced. We must be a very strong pair to exploit the great potential of the team and I think I can help do that,” says de la Rosa, who will be a great support to young Japanese.
