Sauber Confirms Burger King as New Sponsor

Sauber has secured a sponsorship deal with fast food chain Burger King for the Spanish and Valencia Grands Prix.

The team has been short on sponsorship this season and had pinned its hopes on attracting Spanish investment through the signing of Pedro de la Rosa.

Those hopes appeared to have paid off with Burger King Spain agreeing a deal that will place its logos on the side and the nose of the C29 for the two Spanish F1 events.

Burger King Spain’s Elias Diaz Sese said: “The presence of Pedro Martinez de la Rosa as a team driver is important, not only due to the fact he’s Spanish but also because he transmits certain values as a sportsman.”
