Sergio Perez has highlighted Sauber as the 'team to watch' in the 2019 season.
Sauber had a solid season in 2018 and it is likely that 2019 could be even better with veteran Kimi Raikkonen re-joining the team.
Former Sauber driver, Sergio Perez said to Autosport that his former team were ones to watch in the 2019 season.
"Sauber is a great team," he said.
"They went through a very difficult period for a couple of years, but now I think with the Ferrari relationship they are coming back.

"You see Fred [Vasseur] is a great team leader and I think they are making great progress.
"They are definitely the team to watch. Next year they are going to be quite high up.
"I am looking forward for that."
The midfield battle is heating up nicely with a large number of teams being in contention for the position of 'best of the rest'. Many believe that Renault are in the best position to be 4th but all the other teams will be hot on their tails.
