I think this will be a much more exciting season of A1 racing.....I'm guessing the championship will be a lot tighter....

If the first two rounds(Zandvoort and Brno) are any indication, it will be an interesting, close season.

North American viewers of Speed Channel will rejoice over Speed's announcement earlier today that the motorsports broadcast network will air the entire 2006-2007 A1 Grand Prix season beginning on 6 Dec. 2006; all races will be on air about the same length(around 60-90 minutes) as when the series aired on OLN(Outdoor Life Network) in the 2005-2006 NA motorsports off-season.

A1 Grand Prix Chairman David Clare insists the third round of the series in Beijing will go ahead as planned, despite a catalogue of problems that have contributed to just 25-minutes of running being conducted thus far and qualifying to be cancelled.

Having only confirmed a venue a handful of weeks before the race was due to take place, a problem with the layout of the circuit, in particular the exceptionally tight turn eight hairpin, had already forced practice sessions to be postponed while a revision was sought.

Such a change was found overnight, with drivers given a 90-minute practice session ahead of qualifying to get used to the circuit. However, after just 25-minutes it was discovered that a manhole cover on a racing line was coming loose under the pressure of the cars travelling over it at high speed...
