Peter Sauber’s team are delighted to welcome Burger King® Spain back on board for this coming weekend’s European Grand Prix in Valencia. The quick service restaurant chain’s logo is displayed on the sides and, most strikingly, on the top of the monocoque of both C29 racers.
Early Thursday evening, drivers Pedro de la Rosa and Kamui Kobayashi will be stopping off for a photo call and autograph session at the Burger King® restaurant in the Bonaire shopping mall off the A3 motorway on the way to the airport. Accredited media are very welcome to drop by between 19:00 and 20:00 hrs for a Whopper and a soft drink.
Photos will be available soon afterwards in the media section of the team’s website www.sauber-motorsport.com.
