Alfa Romeo will continue to hold naming rights to the Sauber team for the 2021 season.

Sauber, the Swiss-based independent team which have competed in F1 since 1993, have been in partnership with the Italian car marque since 2018, first as technical partners before the outfit was also branded as Alfa Romeo last year.

The two parties have now announced the Alfa Romeo name will continue for 2021.

"The extension of our relationship with Alfa Romeo is a true statement of intent from both parties," said the F1 team's boss Frederic Vasseur.

"In Sauber, Alfa Romeo found a committed, performance-driven partner to which they could entrust their brand: we are honoured to carry the heritage and past success of Alfa Romeo in our name.
