Sauber wins 'lifetime' award

20 December 2005

A tearful Peter Sauber has accepted a 'lifetime achievement' recognition at the Swiss sports awards in Berne. The former team owner, who ran the Sauber team in formula one between 1993 and this year, was honoured at Saturday's 'Credit Suisse Sports Awards'.

Originally an electrician, Sauber honed his appetite for motor sport by racing a VW Beetle before overseeing the first Sauber car - the C1 - for the 1970 'Swiss hill-climb championship'.

He progressed to sports cars and ultimately to F1, but has sold the Hinwil based outfit to BMW, and will remain only as an advisor for sponsors.
