Sauber adds Sparco as new partner

Swiss Formula One motor-racing team Sauber has entered into a partnership with Italian motorsport equipment retailer Sparco.

As part of the deal, Sparco’s logo will feature on the sidepod floor of Sauber’s cars during the 2019 F1 season.

Sparco will also supply the team’s drivers and pit crew with safety gear and equipment, along with the safety belts that will be integrated into Sauber’s single-seaters this season.

The 2019 F1 season gets underway with the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne on March 14-17.
