Default A1 GP

Do you any of you guys follow this series? I've watched every race since OLN picked up coverage. The racing is hugely entertaining. I put this down to the great diversity in driving talent. There's ex-F1 guys in the field and also guys who have barely any open wheel experience. Every race so far has been action packed. You can expect ridiculous bonehead passing moves at each event.

I like it! Laguna was very interesting with all of the rain......Great 1st year of competition for sure.

Good article on the series and founder Sheik Maktoum.

Glad to see some interest start to pick up.

I've been to the Bands Hatch premier and to Laguna Seca this past weekend.

Really exciting racing....lots of passing......great access to the teams

Posted up some free tix to Laguna in the Cali forum last week but no one seemed to bite (I think I put it in the Southern section though)

Their idea of racing is on the streets.

Sounds like an interesting format, although I haven't seen a race yet.
