Sauber hints at livery tweak

Sauber has hinted it may update its livery for the second pre-season test at Barcelona this week.

The new Sauber C34 was launched ahead of the first test at Jerez with a new blue and yellow colour scheme after sponsorship from Banco do Brasil - one of race driver Felipe Nasr's main backers.

The livery was largely the same design as in 2014, with blue replacing grey and the yellow in place of the previous sidepod design, but the team has hinted at a slight update to the livery at the second test by releasing a video on Twitter.

The below video is accompanied with the message "What if the Sauber C34-Ferrari turned up in Barcelona like this?"

The team performed well at the first test, completing significant mileage and never finishing outside of the top two on each of the four days.
