So, what’s been happening in the thrilling world of A1GP while we all had our eyes on Lewis Hamilton? Time for a bit of a catch-up.
Rumours that Justin Wilson is a driver of choice for the Newman/Haas/Lanigan racing team next year have been given a bit of a boost recently – courtesy of Sebastien Bourdais’ race engineer.
Justin Wilson is celebrating a cracking end to his Champ Car season after finishing in the runner-up position behind Sebastien Bourdais.
Lewis Hamilton might not be F1 world champion this year, but at least there’s a consolation prize on offer – in the form of a (literal) gold star from the British Racing Drivers’ Club. The boy wonder has been awarded the BRDC’s 2007 Gold Star award, handed over for his outstanding contribution to motorsport.
Britain’s Lewis Hamilton wants to win the world championship on the race track, not in the appeal court, and says it would be “a bit cruel” if Raikkonen lost the title because of McLaren’s protest.
McLaren should be explaining its actions in China and Brazil rather than trying to overturn the championship result, according to former team boss Eddie Jordan.
It’s not over until the fat lady sings… McLaren are appealing against a decision by the FIA to take no action over three cars that were found to be running with fuel temperature irregularities.
