Peter Sauber vows to go blonde

(GMM) Peter Sauber does not have a lot of hair, but it will apparently be dyed blonde this week as he honours a promise to the formula one team that still bears his name.

The 64-year-old Swiss, who sold the majority of his Hinwil based outfit to BMW ahead of the 2006 season, revealed to 'Radio Zurisee' that he pledged to pull out a bottle of peroxide when BMW-Sauber wins a race.

Travelling members of the outfit were expecting to catch a glimpse of Sauber's new hairstyle when they touch down at Zurich airport early this week.

Under Peter Sauber's independent reign of more than 200 grands prix between 1993 and 2005, the team collected 195 points and 6 podiums, but no wins.
