Gabriel Bortoleto – this will be his first year in Formula One
2025 Hopes and Expectations
In their final year before transitioning to Audi, Sauber introduces an entirely new driver lineup. Nico Hulkenberg, a seasoned veteran, joins the team after an impressive season with Haas, where he scored points in nine races. Alongside him is Gabriel Bortoleto, a rising talent backed by Fernando Alonso and the reigning Formula 2 Champion.
The 2025 season will likely serve as a testing ground for Sauber to evaluate Bortoleto's potential. With a two-year contract, he is positioned to be one of Audi’s drivers in 2026. Having Hulkenberg as an experienced teammate provides Bortoleto with a valuable opportunity to learn and develop.
Bold prediction
Sauber doubles their points from the previous year but still finishes last in the standings.
