The Sauber – van der Garde affair continues

The soap opera of the affair Sauber? Giedo van der Garde continues. After the first decision of the Supreme Court of Victoria agreeing with the Dutch, with a contract allowing him to participate at the Australian Grand Prix, Sauber's call was rejected yesterday.

While a new hearing was held today, but which did not make it possible to find any solution to the case, the two single-seaters from the teamHinwil, who did not take to the track during the first free practice session earlier this morning, finally drove in free practice 2 with Felipe Nasr and Marcus Ericsson at the controls of the C34.

A new hearing is to be held on Saturday, while discussions are underway between the two parties to find an arrangement. Monisha Kaltenborn, Team Principal of Sauber, present at a press conference after free practice 2, refused to comment on the case.
