Sauber was founded by Peter Sauber in the 70s of the twentieth century. 

Sauber is a Swiss racing team that competes in the Formula One World Championship under the name of Alfa Romeo. The team was active between 1993 and 2005, when it was taken over by BMW and continued under the name BMW Sauber in 2006. When BMW withdrew in 2009, it paved the way for Sauber to return in 2010. In 2019, the Sauber team continued under the name Alfa Romeo Racing, which was already the team's title sponsor in 2018.

Alfa Romeo ended its partnership with Sauber and left Formula 1 as the Sauber team prepares as "Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber" to become Audi's factory team in 2026.

The Sauber C29 (also known as BMW Sauber C29) was a Formula One racing car which was used by the BMW Sauber F1 Team in the 2010 Formula One season. It was unveiled on January 31, at Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia.

This was the first Sauber Formula One car that uses fully fledged Ferrari engines since the Petronas-badged C24 in 2005.

The chassis was designed by Willy Rampf, Christoph Zimmermann, Pierre Waché and Seamus Mullarkey with the car being powered with a customer Ferrari engine.

The engine was a Ferrari type 056 2.400 cc 90° V8. It was limited to 18.000 RPM, naturally aspirated and mid-mounted. It was mated to a seven-speed semi-automatic carbon-fibre sequential gearbox with reverse gear electronically controlled, quick-shift Limited-slip differential.

In the early part of the season, the car demonstrated very poor reliability and it was not until the seventh round of the year that the team scored a point with Kamui Kobayashi taking 10th in Turkey. In the second half of the year, the car gradually improved to a very respectable level and the team finished the season with 44 points, taking eighth in the Constructors' Championship.

At the start of 2010, the car had no sponsors, only the driver's name and nationality on the bodywork. As the year progressed, the team gained sponsors, including Burger King, Mad-Croc Energy Drink, スカルプ D ("Scalp D"), Takata, Certina, Onegai My Melody, Mitsubishi Electric and Converse.
