DNF race 1 (due to poor qualifiy and battling it out with other drivers at that end of the grid) , 6th of 15 finishers race 2 (so he passed 9 cars, wo hoo). Nothing to right home about really.
Well there where I think 24 starters and he started 19th so he pass more than 9 as he was 8th before the others started to fall off the track and made his way through to 5th then fought hard to only fall back to 6th so get it right !!!

BTW the fire bomb when off on the car in session 2 thats why he was not out. again get it right !!!!

Race 1 he was taken out by china



now I don't see many others jumping up and down in this thread . But I see your point on the bagging that christan got . On saying that Christain did display and controlled race in germany slow as it was it was controlled and trouble free , But understand this after coming out of a very good showing/start at brands 2nd place to 3rd last at gremany 14th from 17 finshing mind you he started 19th Christan was always going to feel some heat . Will D as had the least amount of time in the car and has shown very well thus far .
And yes I did give Christan some stick cause I want team Aussie to excel in this like we do in most sports . Now I don't think CJ is a bad driver not by a long shot I just queryed why some of our hottest open wheel talent had not had the chance to be tested ...

I support A1GP and I support team Aussie

I say to you yes look at the results they tell a picture but to get the full story watch the race !
