If I was a BMW motorsport boss I'd be embarrassed to have my name on the team.
Apparently the team applying for permission to change the name; this will be discussed in a meeting at Bahrain.

"There is talk of Sauber changing its name, which is entirely logical given the horribly messy BMW Sauber Ferrari tag which makes the teeth of branding specialists stand on end. I understand that there will be a Formula 1 Commission meeting to discuss the matters of the moment in Bahrain, so we will learn more about this and probably about the rules for 2011 as well."
