Peter Sauber sounded very optimistic of solving the team's sponsorship issues but nothing has been settled yet. "There is a good possibility for new partners and we are working very hard on that. "We're sure we will have more colour on the car next year. I don't know what basic colour - it depends on the sponsor."

Various outlets are reporting a possible deal with Carlos Slim and the TELMEX firm.  One of TELMEX's notable racing endeavours is with Chip Ganassi's 24 H of Daytona ptototype team, led by Juan Pablo Montoya.

TELMEX partnership sounds possible, but not with Maldonado who is not from MEXico (MEX part of TELMEX means Mexico).
Sergio Perez & Esteban Gutierrez are the candidates for the seat.
