Pingu, the BMW Sauber team was entered for 2010 before BMW completely dropped out of F1. The team name for this season at least will be BMW Sauber as that was the team name when the entry was submitted. The car is Ferrari-engined, so the team, as bizarre as it may sound, becomes BMW Sauber Ferrari.

"The McLaren-Mercedes chassis has passed pre-race scrutineering today, in Bahrain, in preparation for the Grand Prix on Sunday.
There had been much speculation as to whether the McLaren was legal, and the rival Red Bull team asked to governing body to issue a clarification about the MP4-25's nostril above the driver's head, claiming the device diverts air flow away from the rear wing in order to reduce drag.
FIA technical chief Charlie Whiting said that the McLaren did not break any regulations and the car was cleared by the F1 stewards."
5 hrs (2am eastern) until 1st. Fri. practice.
