Ecclestone supports Klien for Sauber race seat

By on

Having last raced in Formula One in 2006 for Red Bull, Christian Klien is hoping for a race seat within the Sauber team in 2010. Klien has been the test driver for said team since 2008, after a year testing with Honda, but now has added support from FOM CEO Bernie Ecclestone for a race seat.

"It would be super if Christian Klien got the Sauber cockpit. I've always supported Christian and Sauber would be a good team for him," Ecclestone said to Austria's 'ORF' television broadcaster.
