They were the worst team in the 2024 Formula 1 season. The team hardly won 4 points in the previous Formula 1 season. Kick Sauber are going to face a huge takeover next season in Formula 1. They are making steady progress in 2025 with the help of their new team structure. Kick Sauber is among the few teams which have made consistent progress this season. They are also the only team to win a podium among the six midfield contenders.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The saga continues in Spa &#128154;<br><br>Through Eau Rouge and beyond, it&rsquo;s time for the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BelgianGP?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#BelgianGP<\/a> &#127463;&#127466;<br><br>&#127912;&#128396;&#65039; Juan Alcal&aacute; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3d7ocIzn2U\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/3d7ocIzn2U<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Stake F1 Team KICK Sauber (@stakef1team_ks) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stakef1team_ks\/status\/1948362345803116908?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 24, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Season Recap- Kick Sauber F1<\/h2><p>When the season started, nobody ever expected Sauber to bring forth any good results. Their dismal performance in the 2024 season left everyone unimpressed. However, right from the get go, Sauber showed that they mean business in 2025. Nico H&uuml;lkenberg took charge for the tam and completely dominated the midfield performance in the first few races.<\/p><p>The rookie driver Gabriel Bortoleto, was slowly coming upto speed with Nico and following in the footsteps of the German. Gabi and Hulk were constantly displaying extreme pace during races. The only handicap they had was during the qualifying sessions. Incidentally, Nico H&uuml;lkenberg has been able to claim Top-10s from the back of the grid numerous times in the first half of the season.<\/p><p>Jonathan Wheatley and Mattia Binotto have been working hard to get the team upto speed before their takeover by Audi. At this point, Sauber&rsquo;s rapid growth is making a dangerously fast team in the midfield. In the upcoming season, Kick Sauber is showing the potential to reach the front rows and podiums. Kick Sauber&rsquo;s first half has been impressive but it does need a few amendments to claim the best spot in the midfield.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kick Sauber 2025 Highlights<\/h3><figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Championship Standing<\/strong><\/td><td>6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Points<\/strong><\/td><td>41<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-5s<\/strong><\/td><td>2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-10s<\/strong><\/td><td>6<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kick Sauber Driver H2H- Nico H&uuml;lkenberg vs Gabriel Bortoleto<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><\/td><td><strong>Nico H&uuml;lkenberg &ndash; GER<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Gabriel Bortoleto<\/strong> <strong>&ndash; BRA<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Standings<\/strong><\/td><td>9<\/td><td>19<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Points<\/strong><\/td><td>37<\/td><td>4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-5s<\/strong><\/td><td>2<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-10s<\/strong><\/td><td>5<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p>Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico H&uuml;lkenberg are a balanced pair racing together in the 2025 season for Sauber.

The F2 champion and rookie, Bortoleto was unable to create a lasting impression amongst the other talents which joined F1 alongside him. In Gabi&rsquo;s defence, Sauber&rsquo;s car was extremely slow and unable to make it out of Q1 most of the times in qualifying. However, Gabriel Bortoleto did not fade away. Instead, after the upgrades started pouring in, Gabi&rsquo;s speed and results improved considerably.<\/p><p>The two teammates have been working together in the 2025 season. Hulk already gave Sauber their first podium in 13 years at the British GP. Gabi&rsquo;s performance is also giving him a good reputation in the team. Team principal, Jonathan Wheatley, has been highly appreciative of Gabi&rsquo;s work and efforts.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparison vs 2024- How Does the Team Fare Against Their Results from Last Season?<\/h2><p>Here&rsquo;s a comparison of Kick Sauber and their driver&rsquo;s results compared to the previous season-<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>(2024 &ndash; 2025)<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Kick Sauber Ferrari<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Nico H&uuml;lkenberg &ndash; GER<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Gabriel Bortoleto &ndash; BRA<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Standings<\/strong><\/td><td>10 &ndash; 6<\/td><td>11 &ndash; 9<\/td><td>NA &ndash; 19<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Points<\/strong><\/td><td>0 &ndash; 41<\/td><td>22 &ndash; 37<\/td><td>NA &ndash; 4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-5s<\/strong><\/td><td>0 &ndash; 2<\/td><td>0 &ndash; 2<\/td><td>NA &ndash; 0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top-10s<\/strong><\/td><td>0 &ndash; 6<\/td><td>5 &ndash; 5<\/td><td>NA &ndash; 1<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p>Looking back at the first half of their 2025 season, Sauber should be proud of their achievements. Nico H&uuml;lkenberg is also a prime example of how no-one can be underestimated in Formula 1 racing. People did not expect anything in the sport from either of these two, but in 2025, they have been proving critics wrong at every single stage. Gabriel Bortoleto has been doing a good job so far. The Brazilian needs to keep up with his teammate.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Predictions and Challenges for the Second Half of 2025 Season<\/h2><p>Sauber&rsquo;s biggest challenge is qualifying performance. It has shown that the cars have enough pace to turn things around in the race itself. However, starting positions on the grid are incredibly necessary for the drivers. Kick Sauber F1 need to create a better car in order to claim a good spot in qualifying and maximising their chances of claiming better points.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">TEAM STANDINGS (after 12 rounds)<br><br>Hulkenberg's podium sees <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stakef1team_ks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@stakef1team_ks<\/a> move up three places to sixth! &#128079;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/F1?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#F1<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BritishGP?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#BritishGP<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DHN0ca6MxU\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/DHN0ca6MxU<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Formula 1 (@F1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/F1\/status\/1941934422292336679?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 6, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The Kick Sauber F1 team is going good in the past races. They have won points consecutively for the last four weekends with Nico H&uuml;lkenberg. Not getting ahead of ourselves, we should not expect the Hulk or Gabi to gain another podium finish in the latter half of the season so easily. After all, the team is still a midfield competitor. Sauber can try to overtake Williams who have failed down in speed recently. They are on a good track and just need to capitalise on points as much as possible.<\/p><p>The 2025 Formula 1 season is set for Sauber. The team is ready to make moves in the upcoming championship next season. Hopefully, they will finish the season as the best team among the midfielders.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A step by step guide for McLaren F1&#8217;s 2025 F1 season after the British Grand Prix<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":76405,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4358],"tags":[4607,4637,4704,4655,4703],"class_list":["post-76205","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-formula-1","tag-formula-1","tag-formula-1-2025-season","tag-gabriel-bortoleto","tag-kick-sauber-f1","tag-nico-hulkenberg"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Formula 1 Mid Season Guide for Kick Sauber F1 by The Playoffs!

I got into online journalism a couple of years ago. I used to be an intern for a website managing their Formula 1 content and then I served an entire year as a contractual writer. For me, online journalism was not something I expected. I am a Mechanical Engineer aiming to join Formula 1. At the same time, I am a poet, writer and my university\\'s Literary Club Lead. One day the dots connected together and I realised I could use my writing skills to convey my passion for Motorsports. The biggest aspects I love about my role are- Scuderia Ferrari and Sebastian Vettel. When I am not fawning over them I like to convey my opinions to the public, in a manner which helps them gain a new point of view. I love helping people explore new ideas about Motorsports and obviously get recognised as a writer all over the world.
