Rather than not featuring star drivers, I would say that A1GP is making them. Think Sean McIntosh, Salvador Duran, Stephen Simpson and Matt Halliday for example.
And I think the nation vs nation concept will end up being more popular than drivers anyway, the football world cup for example is not Ronaldinho vs Micheal Owen...
Besides, F1 has national undertones as well, Germans tend to support Schumacher as their own, Ferrari has long been considered Italy's national team, Brits tend to back Coulthard or Button etc etc.
Funny that Mosley should decide to speak up when A1GP has just had two capacity crowds as well...If it wasn't becoming a significant series on the world stage he would not have felt the need to.
