Like the Arrows, Sauber has a very long association with Formula One. The team made its F1 debut way back in 1993. Since then, the team participated in over 350 Grand Prix and managed to secure 10 podiums along the way.

Sauber’s first podium came at the 1995 Italian Grand Prix. With a Ford Cosworth engine, Frentzen captured a brilliant third-place finish, which was not only the team’s first podium but also the German’s first podium as well.

Since then, Sauber managed to secure one podium every year till the 1998 season. After a brief hiatus of two years, the Sauber team was back on the podium at the 2001 Brazilian Grand Prix after a stellar drive from Nick Heidfeld. Frentzen secured the team’s sixth podium two years later at the 2003 United States Grand Prix.

Sauber's best chance of securing a race win was during the 2012 Formula One season as the team managed to capture four podium finishes that year. Sergio Perez, with a Ferrari power unit, stormed to three podiums while Kobayashi took the third place at his home Grand Prix.

Since then, the team hasn’t had a chance to secure a podium finish. However, the arrival of Kimi Raikkonen in 2019 might just tip the odds in the team’s favour.
