Powered by a Ferrari V-8 engine, the C30 was unveiled by its two regular drivers, Kamui Kobayashi and rookie Sergio Pérez along with Peter Sauber, Monisha Kaltenborn and James Key.

"We have managed to secure our business foundation for the 2011 season.  In these economically straitened times that is something we can be proud of," said team owner and boss Peter Sauber.
