The parties eventually reached a settlement, with Van der Garde reportedly receiving $16million (£13m) in compensation. The saga saw Sauber not take part in the first practice session of the weekend, prompting then F1 overlord Bernie Ecclestone to intervene.Įricsson and Nasr did compete in the second practice session with van der Garde agreeing to drop his demand to race in Melbourne.

Van der Garde brazenly turned up in Melbourne, race suit and all, meaning in effect Sauber had three drivers for two seats.
Again, it went in his favour, meaning he was legally entitled to drive, although Sauber appealed against the decision on safety grounds. On the eve of the season opener in Melbourne, his management filed an application in an Australian Court to enforce the Swiss order. Van der Garde was having none of it and filed an international arbitration complaint with the Swiss Chambers’ Arbitration Institution, which was upheld.
During that season he was promised a full-time drive for the following year, only for Sauber to announce Marcus Ericsson and Nasr as their drivers for 2015.

Van der Garde joined Sauber as a test and reserve driver for 2014, taking part in three practice sessions. The Dutchman was at the centre of one of the most bizarre driver/team standoffs in F1 history. The car suffered significant damage but Sutil escaped from the wreck unharmed.Īdrian Sutil towards the end of his single season with Sauber in 2014 (Image: Matthew Stockman/Getty Images) Giedo van der Garde In 2020, he reportedly crashed his McLaren Senna, a limited edition sports car, into an electricity pylon in Monaco. Little has been heard of the 39-year-old since then, although he is known to have an impressive classic car collection. He joined Sauber for 2014 but was dropped at the end of the season and joined Williams as a reserve driver. He continued to race for Force India that season but after he was convicted for GBH and handed a suspended prison sentence in early 2012, he was dropped by the team, only to return for 2013. Sutil apologised and insisted the incident was unintentional. In fact the most memorable moment of his F1 career arguably occurred in a Shanghai nightclub in 2011 when he left then owner of the Lotus team, Eric Lux, needing 24 stitches in a neck wound after striking him with a champagne glass. Earlier this summer, the 31-year-old made a surprise return to F2, driving for Campos Racing at the Austrian Grand Prix meeting in place of the injured Ralph Boschung.įelipe Nasr of Sauber at the 2016 Japanese Grand Prix (Image: Clive Mason/Getty Images) Adrian SutilĪ former rival of Lewis Hamilton in the junior categories, the German competed in 128 grands prix for the Silverstone-based team under various guises, Midland, Spyker and Force India, with limited success. Last year he ventured Down Under to compete in the S5000 Tasman Series, a single-seater category, while this year he has been racing in the Japanese SuperGT championship. There was a brief return to F1 circles in 2019 when he signed as a development driver, although bizarrely his contract prevented him from revealing which team he was employed by. Merhi then turned his hand to other categories, racing in Formula E and Formula 2. Merhi was dropped for the final five races of 2015 season, with Alexander Rossi taking his place. The Spaniard was one of the unfortunate souls to race with backmarkers Manor Marussia, a graveyard for many young drivers' F1 hopes.

Others have been harshly spat out without being given a fair crack of the whip. Some have just been unfortunate to arrive in the wrong team at the wrong time. That is often simply to a driver underperforming amid a pressure-cooker environment while others were simply not up to the job in the first place. In the brutal world of Formula 1, there are far more hard-luck stories than tales of success.įor every Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso, there are many more episodes of unfulfilled dreams.
