I thought it was pretty good, the sprint race had alot of overtaking.

It'l be interesting to see how the long race goes, but it's obvious Brazil has the more talented driver.

P.S. The women presenters are hot :drool:
 
Yeah it has.

I'm not watching just cause of the boobs, but it's better than listening to some guy who seems to have little opinion speak.

Loads of action in the 2nd race already. France stalled :D And a few spins.
 
Meh.

The pitstops are weird.

Mechs not allowed out untill car stationary.
Only 2 can work on car at time, however, helpers (Jack men, tire carriers) are allowed.

:odd:

[EDIT] Verstappen has flipped it!

LOL what kind of funky ass rules are those. They are just milking us trying to force in some kind of entertainment.
Force? Itt's amazing now.

Verstappen caused his own problem, pulled onto the other car (open wheel racing 👍)

Team GB lead after Brazil mess up the pit stop!

TEAM GB!

[EDIT] Incar pics are amazing. You could see verstappens face while he was flipping :crazy:

[EDIT2] Team GB went off under safety car!?!!?!? Noooo! :odd:
Australia lead.
 
That wasnt verstappen who flipped but someone else. Great incam however. GB mechanical failure stupid A1 cars. They are made by lol its stupid though that there are mechanical failure in cars that are only pushing out 520hp.

Also most of the drivers are second rate constantly sliding and running off the track at meagre 100mph. The best thing about A1 is that when the drivers crash I get to see the beautiful Audi RS4 safety car. That car is amazing. I want one.

But that's part of the point. It's not just all the best drivers, it's the best drivers of a country.

We did see abit too much of the SC but yeah, it was nice :D

Good race overall, surprised to see that not all drivers were using the power boosts. Even the NZ driver who was constantly trying to overtake didn't :odd:
 
Im dissapointed with A1 but good race from nelson.

I shall give it another opportunity however when I get to see the A1's race on a better track.
 
OMG! I Loved it! Anoyone who mocks it wasnt watching it properly! Absolutely fantastic!

And no race in Brazil, woo hoo! :indiff:

There's a race in Brazil :)

What an awesome series! The A1GP was just so much more interesting than Formula 1, and I love the idea of the power boosting. The coverage over here went for 3 hours, and it was fantastic. If only the Australian A1 race wasn't a day before my final exams at school I'd definitely be there. :(
 
Yep, there is a race in Brazil in early February.

A better track than Brands Hatch! - you'll get more overtaking at Brands then you will most circuits.
 
its not a proper developed circuit for people viewing at home. Its a second rate circuit compared to silverstone alone.

A1's are just too slow for me. They need to uprate the power another 200 hundread horses.

Ah, good news! The first time I checked A1's website a few months ago there was no race in Brazil. And Curitiba is just a couple of hours from my town, so I might go watch it live. :)

Look, you clearly have no clue. Brands Hatch is a fantastic circuit, and just because it doesn't currently host Formula 1 does not mean it's crap. You should just try to enjoy it instead of complaining that it's not like your beloved Formula 1, as it was clearly great racing, and much more interesting than Formula 1.

Have you even ever been brands hatch. No ou have not I live basically a stone throws away. My main complaint is that theyre too bloody slow. All this hype over nothing.
 
Who cares?

They're still faster than anything you're ever likely to drive (520hp/600kg dry) and managed to fit more overtaking and, dare I say it, crash action in just over an hour than happens in an entire season of F1.

The Lebanese driver's crash was great - especially the way the medical car cut up one of the competitors...

Faster than anyhting I'll ever own yes but drive highly unlikely.
