    If you haven't gotten enough racing today . . . the Feature race is on OLN right now. Sprint race was great - lots of action with the very wet course. Brian Hertz finished 10th. In the feature, Mexico and Brazil started on slicks, everyone else wets. Most of the field just did their required pit stop and changed to slicks - Mexico, Portugal, USA still have to pit. France had quickest stop at 40.1 secs. Safety car out right now. Looks on the chilly side in CA - lots of folks wearing jackets.

    Congratulations to France - the first championship winners in A1GP.

    Next A1GP 2 April in China.

    Great race series - looking forward to the racing next season.

    Great races, it was tough to envision Laguna in those conditions, although, it did clear up a little. The races I remember watching at that track all had nice sunny weather.

    Possible Spoiler:

    I've only watched the last few A1GPs, but they seem less like racing and more like a safety car parade.

    And these drivers even manage to collide behind the safety car. I mean, aside from JPM, what driver does that? ;)

    But the driver field does seem like an odd mix of ustabes and wannabes.

    Still; it's better than watching nascar. :p

    The medical car incident(well almost) at the start of the season was the funniest thing I have ever seen in a car race. Didnt watch all the races but some interesting clashes.

    I still remember threads of ppl making direct comparisons to F1 hahaha.
