The restructuring of the Sauber team following its buy-out by Swiss finance group Longbow continues.
As the team finally begins to introduce updates to the car, and in the wake of the recruitment of Xevi Pujolar, Max Verstappen's race engineer at Toro Rosso, as Head of Track Engineering, the Swiss team has announced a new Head of Aerodynamics.
Nicolas Hennel de Beaupreau started at the team headquarters in Hinwil at the beginning of September. He had previously worked for several F1 teams; including Lotus F1 where he was Head of Aerodynamics.
Meanwhile, Mariano Alperin-Bruvera and Seamus Mullarkey, who split the position as Head of Aerodynamics on an interim bases, will return to their previous positions.
Can't help but pity the person designated to embroider his name onto his team kit however.
