Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I hau te manawa o te Formula One i te ata rā o te Rāhoroi i Melbourne i te wa i whakarerea ai e te kaihauturu o mua o Sauber, a Giedo van der Garde, tana mahi ture ki te kapa. I whakawakia e ia i a rātau mō te whakarere i a ia ahakoa he kirimana ki te whakataetae mō rātau i tēnei tau, e tīmata ana ki te Australian Grand Prix o te Rātapu. I whakatauhia e ngā kōti i Melbourne he pai ki a ia, e mea ana he tika tana ki te taraiwa. Heoi anō, kāore i whiwhi ia i tētahi raihana-nui, nō reira kāore i taea. Kua whakatau a Giedo van der Garde ki te whakarere i tana take ki te kapa o mua a Sauber i muri i tana whakataunga i waho o te kooti.

I whakarerea e Van der Garde te take ki a Sauber i runga i te whakaute ki te'motorsport, me te F1 i roto i te nuinga' Marcus Ericssson me Felipe Nasr ka rere mo ratou i tona wahi. I whakaingoatia rāua e rua i runga i te rārangi whakataetae a Sauber, ā, i whai wāhi atu rātau ki te whakangungu tuarua i te Paraire, i te mea i noho atu rātau i te wā tuatahi i te wā i tautohetohe ai ngā roia.

I whakamahere a Giedo van der Garde ki te whakawakia te kapa o mua a Sauber. I whakarerea e Sauber a Van der Garde ahakoa he kirimana ki te whakataetae.
