(CNN) -- The chief executive of Formula One team Sauber has backed recent calls for a budget cap saying that it would make the sport "more interesting." "In my view, the future should indeed lie in some kind of budget cap under which each and every team could do what they want to, because we all have different strengths," Monisha Kaltenborn, CEO of the Swiss-based team, said in an interview with Formula1.com. "How much longer will it take for the big teams to understand that the smaller teams are just as important to Formula One as the four big ones?"
