NEWS STORY

A press conference has been scheduled for 12:00 today (GMT) in Munich.

Present will be; Prof. Dr. Burkhard Göschel (Member of the Board of Management of the BMW
AG, Development and Purchasing), Dr. Mario Theissen (BMW Motorsport Director) and Peter Sauber.

According to the invitation no one-on-one interviews will be possible, while the fact that the invitation was sent out hours before the press conference indicate that this has all taken place at very short notice.

Reading between the lines, it's unlikely that Sauber would be there if he had simply sold his team to BMW, therefore we can probably expect an engine deal or maybe BMW has bought a stake in the Swiss team.

Either way, the people at Grove will be as interested as the rest of us.
