Sauber C34 launched with new livery

The Sauber C34 has been launched online, with the team switching to a yellow and blue livery for 2015.

Sauber's latest design follows a disappointing 2014 season, with the team failing to score a point and finishing 10th in the constructors' championship. The new car features a wider front nose than its predecessor and a more tightly packaged rear end, while the team says packaging has been a challenge as the Ferrari engine architecture "has changed significantly".

The blue and yellow livery is the result of Banco do Brasil sponsorship brought to the team by the former Williams reserve Felipe Nasr, who will partner former Caterham driver Marcus Ericsson this season in an all-new line-up.
