A1GP : Team Pakistan returns to the race track

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 15 May 2010 22:35:00 +0000

A1 Team Pakistan finally made a return to the race track last week, following the completion of the build programme for its new A1GP car.

The team shook down the new car at the Phakisa Freeway Circuit in Welkom, South Africa, on Monday, with a further two days of testing on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Seatholder and driver for the team, Adam Khan, was behind the wheel and was pleased with the progress the team made over the course of the test session.

Khan completed 68 laps on the first full day of running and 74 laps on the second day, improving his times and developing the setup of the car with his engineer, John Gentry.

Khan said of the test:
“It’s been a long wait for me to have a car which I could safely and comfortably fit, but it’s been worth it. I really enjoyed the handling of this new A1GP Powered by Ferrari car, and I was gaining confidence throughout the test. It was a very smooth running test and with the excellent reliability we had, we were able to quickly move on to developing our performance."

“Unfortunately we’re a long way behind the other teams now, as they have completed four race weekends and that’s given them plenty of time to understand the complexity of the car, its handling characteristics and setup development. We elected not to contest the South African round, but we’ll be racing again at the next round in Portugal.”

A1 Team Pakistan Team Manager, Les Jones, added:
“Our build programme for this new car has been severely delayed and has left us at a considerable disadvantage with the lack of track time that we’ve had, so it is the right decision to sit out the next round and continue our test programme before racing again."

“This initial test was very productive and I’m very pleased with what we’ve achieved. Our test programme with Adam was the focus for the three days. Adam and John (Gentry) have quickly established a good working relationship, which is a very important aspect of any top motor racing team. The whole team worked very hard to pull the programme together this week and their efforts were rewarded with excellent mechanical reliability.”

A1 Team Pakistan has competed in every season of the A1GP World Cup of Motorsport. Khan raced in the first and third seasons, with a sabbatical to complete his university studies in the second season.

The 2008/09 A1GP Series continues on the 10-12 April with the sixth round being held at the Algarve Circuit in Portugal.

The opportunity in itself encompasses a huge array of things and is fantastic preparation for the future, which I hope with hard work and commitment, as well as enjoyment, will be a bright one."

The 08/09 season saw wholesale changes not just at A1GP but within Team Pakistan. On September 10, 2008 Adam Khan was announced to hold the dual-role of race driver, and seat holder of A1 Team Pakistan for the 2008-09 season. replacing Arif Hussain who had successfully established A1 Team Pakistan. Team Craft took over the running of the team. The team has not yet participated in the season as Adam Khan is too big for the new Ferrari built chassis.

The chassis was eventually built ahead of Round 5 in Gauteng, however Khan did not race for undisclosed reasons. He did not race in Round 6 either due to a date clash with his ING Renault F1 Team demonstration driver duties, and did not compete in the final round.

A1GP History Of The A1GP Series

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 08:55:00 +0000

On 30 March 2004, A1 Grand Prix, a brand new concept in international motorsport was launched to the worlds press at the prestigious Jumeira Beach hotel in Dubai. Series founder Sheikh Maktoum Hasher Maktoum Al Maktoum unveiled his vision for an exciting yet accessible sport where all countries could compete equally on a level playing field. From this spark, grew A1GP, a series with deliberately equalised technology and national teams, racing their flag in the World Cup of Motorsport.

From March 2004 onwards, Sheikh Maktoum and his business partner, Tony Teixeira, set about building the team that would bring this exciting concept to reality. British firms Lola International and Zytek Engineering were appointed to develop the chassis and engine, based on the initial drawings of Sheikh Maktoum himself while US Company Cooper Tires was chosen as the official tyre supplier. By July of that year, the first generation A1GP race car was ready to be unveiled.

While Sheikh Maktoum focused on developing every strand of his initial vision, from the design of the cars on the track to the look and feel of the website, tickets branding and overall consumer experience, Tony Teixeira set about attracting investors and potential team owners.

Over the coming year, 25 national teams were developed representing countries as diverse in culture and economic prosperity as they were in their motorsport experience. Countries such as China and Lebanon would compete against the likes of the USA, Great Britain and France and with the launch of each team came the support of high profile sports stars and successful businessmen alongside world leaders and politicians.

After an intense testing programme, the final A1GP race car was built and August 2005 saw the newly formed A1 Teams take to the track for the first time. Throughout five days of testing at both the Silverstone Circuit in the UK and Paul Ricard HTTT in the South of France, the cars proved fast and reliable and an exciting spectacle was assured as the time had come for the racing to begin.
