Sauber unveils the C22

Sauber Petronas unveiled its new Formula 1 challenger in Zurich on Sunday with Peter Sauber declaring that the team wants to "get back to the number four" position having been pushed back to fifth place in last year's Constructors' World Championship.

The drivers Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Nick Heidfeld both said that the new car is better than last year's C21 in tests that have taken place to date.

"What we felt first of all was that the car was more stable at the rear than it was last year," said Heidfeld. "It is a lot less snappy. We also knew that we get more power this year but there was really a big difference. I was a bit surprised by how big a difference it was."
