Sauber hopes to extend its successful streak.

      The Sauber team has scored points in six consecutive races and hopes to extend its successful run in Zandvoort…

      Jonathan Wheatley, team principal: "The summer break allowed us to rest; we now return to racing with renewed energy and are ready to pick up where we left off. With Zandvoort's unique layout and sudden changes in weather, surprises are always possible — this weekend we must be prepared for anything. Improvements to the C45 and optimization of our on-track work increase our chances of scoring points in the second half of the season. The goal remains to maximize our potential."

      Nico Hülkenberg: "I'm glad to be back on track. I recharged over the break, spent time with family and friends, and am now ready for the battles ahead. I have many fond memories of karting in the Netherlands, and Zandvoort is the closest circuit to my hometown on this year's calendar, so this event has a special meaning for me. It's an interesting track with elevation changes and a variety of corners. I'd like to carry our success into the second half of the season."

      Gabriel Bortoleto: "The break did me good — I spent time with family and friends in Brazil, and now I'm eagerly looking forward to what's next. The final phase of my debut season lies ahead, and I want every session to allow me to keep learning and improving while helping the team fight for strong results. The last time I raced at Zandvoort was in regional Formula racing, and I really enjoyed it. We want to extend our successful run in the upcoming races."
