Certina enters the ninth year of partnership with Switzerland’s Sauber Formula 1 team, which dates back to 2005. The Certina brand will be present on the wind deflectors in front of the side pods on the car and on the helmet visors of the two drivers, Nico Hülkenberg (Ger) and Esteban Gutiérrez (Mex). Certina also supplies the entire race team with its sporty timepieces.

Adrian Bosshard, president of Certina, confirms: “After eight years of partnership with the Sauber F1 Team, we are looking forward to continuing to make use of the dynamic and innovative platform that Formula 1 provides. The team’s professional approach and typically Swiss philosophy are a perfect fit with our brand.”

“Certina has always been strongly committed to cutting-edge technology,” says Monisha Kaltenborn, CEO of the Sauber F1 Team, “and that’s an ideology we share. Since 2005, we have also been united by an enduring partnership that embraces common values such as innovation and efficiency. These are key factors behind the upturn in the Sauber F1 Team to which Certina has made a definitive contribution.”
