Sauber’s technical director James Key has resigned from his position after a technical reorganization at the team. He has been in this position for under two years and stated that he has left the team to ‘take up a new role back in the United Kingdom’.
Key commented: “I have enjoyed the past two years working at the Sauber F1 Team. It has been a very intense and interesting time, in which we had to manage the transition from a much larger team to a smaller one and everybody handled that very well. I think the team is now well set for the future and I wish it the very best. I have been offered a new role back in the UK, which I decided to accept.”
Team Principal Peter Sauber showed his appreciation for Key’s work by saying: “A qualified team shares the overall technical responsibility. This structure has proved to work well at other racing outfits. Over a period of almost two years, James has accomplished a lot for our team. Especially in the difficult transition period from a manufacturer team into a private enterprise, he contributed significantly to ensure the team regained stability. We would like to thank him for his efforts and wish him all the best for his future.”
