Maybe his daddy-in-law wants to take over Sauber?

OMG...
Do Sauber have an in-house attorney? They really don't seem to have any kind of strategy for how to deal with this, besides hoping that they would win in court.
Now that they have lost, and exhausted every available appeal (AFAIK) what are their options besides letting GVdG drive? At some point they're going to have to get to grips with that reality. They signed a contract, and every court they have been in front of has told them that is in force. If they decide to ignore the various courts' conclusions, this is going to get *really* ugly in a hurry.

Something has clearly happened behind the scenes for Sauber to risk running 2 cars with no Giedo in one. I suspect money has changed hands
"I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

Sauber now back on track, with no indication of what happened (or whether the situation is fully resolved)
Maybe GvdG's father in law is negotiating to buy some share of the team and all of this is just hardball negotiating?

Right. Unless there's some deal behind the scenes we haven't heard about yet. Usually when there's a big legal fight there are also negotiations going on in parallel behind the scenes. We just only find out when they finally agree. Originally Posted by CNR

For me it sound reasonable to remove Hybrid from the car in terms of cost saving. If I am not mistaken, one unit is ca 15% of the total car cost. And in most of the rallies, more than one unit is...
