The Sauber C15 was a car designed by Sauber for the 1996 Formula One Season. It was powered by a V10 Ford Zetec-R engine, which was theoretically more powerful than the V8 Ford engine used in the predecessor Sauber C14.
However, engine reliability issues hampered the team's performance, allowing them to score only 11 points in the season. This was 7 fewer points than the team had managed to collect in 1995.
