		Peter Sauber was trained as electrician but he was always fascinated by automobiles.
		Sauber's early adventures convinced him that he wanted to be more involved in competition activities and his fascination for the technical aspects of the business led him to modify the Beetle to create a spectacular racing buggy (which was known as "The Cheese Sandwich" to Sauber's rivals).
		Sauber then turned to preparing BMW M1 sportscars for Marc Surer and in 1981 built the M1 which won the Nurburgring 1000 sportscar race in the hands of Hans Stuck and Nelson Piquet.
