Peter Zauber: Seek sponsorship is becoming more difficult

Last year Peter Zauber left the post of head of the team, but not retired. On pre-season test in Jerez, the founder of the Swiss team talked about their current practice.
Peter Zauber: "Now people often ask me about how I feel retired. I left the post of team leader, but this does not mean that I have nothing else to do, and the economic conditions remain challenging.

Seek sponsorship has always been difficult, and in the current situation. Still, we are negotiating with new partners and hope that they will lead to interesting results.

Failure sponsors financial obligations? I heard about these problems, but they did not touch our team. I am very pleased with partners Sauber".
Free time Peter Zauber dedicates his new passion - the game of Golf.

"I started playing with my wife in Golf - continued Zauber. Great lesson! You are outdoors in the company of like-minded, moving more than four hours and must maintain concentration.
The tests in Jerez? I would prefer that on the first day of the test team worked a little faster, but the good news is that we don't have any problems. We have used a very bold decision for the side pontoons and it actually worked well, although we had no guarantees. A couple of years ago because of the way the location of the exhaust pipes could cause problems with overheating the rear of the machine. Now things are going well".
