F1.07 proving fast but fragile in testingNick Heidfeld has played down reports that BMW Sauber is struggling for reliability ahead of the 2007 season.
"I would rather have a fast car that you have to make reliable than a slow car that you have to make fast," the
team's German driver told the Munich newspaper Tageszeitung.
Technical Director Willy Rampf, meanwhile, admitted that the F1.07, a standout of the pre-season test tracks especially in terms of long-run pace, has been beset by problems.
Tageszeitung said faulty transmission and hydraulics have been the biggest problems so far, with the Hinwil built single seater perhaps yet to amass a single 300km race distance without pulling in for repairs.
