Pedro de la Rosa at Sauber

Spanish driver Pedro de la Rosa was confirmed on Tuesday as the second driver for BMW Sauber. Pedro has started 71 Grands Prix as a racer, but most recently spent several years as reserve driver for McLaren. He’s posing here at the BMW Sauber factory, presumably in a jumper he got for Christmas.

Out of the Frying Pan

Nick Fry sits on the pitwall for Brawn GP during the British Grand Prix 2009. Fry has been quite open today about the team’s decision not to release Jenson Button from his contract with them before the end of the year. Although the Brit has signed for McLaren for 2010, he won’t be allowed to do anything for them until his current contract runs out.
