Volgens onze bronnen in Australië wordt het vandaag toch echt D-day. Giedo van der Garde zal moeten rijden tijdens de kwalificatie, tenzij Sauber een andere oplossing heeft. Het lijkt echter vrij aannemelijk dat Sauber geen financiële vergoeding kan betalen, waardoor het een logisch gevolg is dat de spullen van Sauber binnen enkele uren in beslag worden genomen en Monisha Kaltenborn in de cel zal belanden. Een ander gevolg hiervan zal het faillisement van Sauber betekenen.
Ook gaan er geruchten dat de schoonvader van Giedo, Marcel Boekhoorn, aast op een eventuele overname van Sauber. De tijd zal uitwijzen of het allemaal daadwerkelijk zal gebeuren.
Hieronder een overzicht van de belangrijkste informatie die vanuit Melbourne tot ons komt.
Update - 00:20
Giedo van der Garde meldt het volgende op zijn Facebook:
With respect to the interest of motorsport, and F1 in particular, I have decided to give up my legal rights to race this weekend at the Melbourne Grand Prix.
As I am a passionate race driver this decision has been very difficult for me.
However I also wish to respect the interest of the FIA, Sauber Motorsport, as well as Nasr and Ericsson.
My management will continue talks with Sauber early next week to find a mutually acceptable solution for the current situation that has now arisen.
I am confident such solution will be found and I will inform the media once done.

Just to clarify the Swiss arbitration judgement, and the Aussie court order, still stand. The contempt of court action is dropped

— Adam Cooper (@adamcooperF1) ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e317___So now we await more news on the agreement, which apparently is still fluid - and could yet involve him driving the car at some stage

Today is all about whether or not ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e323___ and ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e324___ have come to an agreement - probably a financial settlement - overnight

Possible scenario is that cars and Monisha Kaltenborn won't be able to leave Australia until it's sorted to judge's satisfaction
— Adam Cooper (@adamcooperF1) ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e327___That would be the issue of a summons for contempt of court. Cars will probably be allowed to race, but equipment would be seized
— Adam Cooper (@adamcooperF1) ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e328___Bottom line is if ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e329___ has not been able to conclude a deal with ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e32a___ it goes to the next step
— Adam Cooper (@adamcooperF1) ___Escaped_link_6983923b8e32b___So, another day and another episode in the @GvanderGarde v @SauberF1Team saga, which is set to reach a critical stage this morning
