"The anniversary car for a new era," said Sauber, which was bought by Swiss investment firm Longbow Finance last year, alongside pictures of the C-36 car posted on the team's website (www.sauberf1team.com). Ferrari-powered Sauber finished 10th of the 11 teams last season, scoring their two crucial points only in the penultimate round in Brazil to overtake now-defunct Manor. Kaltenborn said Sauber had the resources to develop the car, which will use the reliable 2016 Ferrari power unit rather than the latest model, through the season and was aiming at a return to the team's previous place among the midfield. Sauber have only once won a race, in Canada in 2008 when BMW owned the team. Monday marked the start of a week of Formula One launches, with Renault next up in London on Tuesday.
