When Mattia Binotto took over the reins at Sauber to continue the Swiss team's journey to become Audi's works factory team he knew the path to the top was steep.
Binotto had previously spent more than three decades at Ferrari, working his way up to first lead their engine department, then run the operation as Team Principal.
