rufus_mcdufus - They aren't acting like bureaucrats, they stamped and filed the forms confirming van der Garde and ignored it. No bureaucrat would ever do such a thing.
How stupid are Sauber?

Corrupt bureaucrats!
Quite.
They're acting less like bureaucrats than low-grade spivs, criminals and MPs in my opinion.

Good, I hope Sutil walks off with a tidy sum and some satisfaction at having gotten something out of the whole damned mess. Sauber screwed up, they should be paying through the nose for their deplorable actions.
My husband and I were screwed out of a three year contract when a new buyer came in and didn't want to honor it, despite the fact one of the original men who signed the contract remained as the owner. To say I'm cheering for the drivers in this is an understatement. My husband got screwed out of his dream job because of this sort of thing - he absolutely takes van der Garde and Sutil's side on this.

I provided Sauber with the solution to their problems back in November last year.

I agree with honouring contracts but I'm afraid I can't support anything that might aid or lead to Adrian Sutil getting another drive in F1
I believe Adrian will have set his sights on the pay off rather than the car.
I think that he has already said that.
...not without filling in the requisite contract retraction forms, and getting them stamped first...
But money means he can buy a seat next year. Nothing good will come of this I tell you!

Sauber may have inadvertently solved some of the funding issues in F1 by making themselves liable!

It is a contract of employment between Sauber and the driver... if the driver did not want to drive for the team he signed then he has to fork out to buy out his contract... so Sauber don't want the driver now promising employment so they are liable in anyone's books
You can get away with it if it is a verbal agreement but a signed contract you can't avoid to contest and expect to pay nothing
