I think I actually agree with all of them Rich... good choices.
World champion: A1 Team Ireland
Runners up: A1 Team Switserland
Number 3: A1 Team Portugal
Best event 2008-2009: Gauteng (good racing on a track they hadn't visited before, and not a bad crowd)
Most improved team: A1 Team Australia (really impressed me this year)
Rookie of the year: JR Hildebrand Jr. (spectacular race debut at Brands Hatch)
Most spectacular overtaking move: Dan Clarke vs John Martin at Brands Hatch (of course
)
Best Fans: A1 Team Netherlands (for coming out in their droves at Zandvoort and getting drenched, also for their vocal support at Brands Hatch. Irish fans a close second)
PR Excellence: A1 Team Australia (their website always carries up to date, interesting news and articles)
Most Improved driver: John Martin (AUS) (went from midfield to upper midfield, could have scored a win if circumstances allowed. Will win on the Gold Coast if he stays with the team, in my opinion
)
Best pitcrew: A1 Team Australia (fastest, what more can we say?)
Rebuild award: A1 Team Brazil (Felipe G. seemed to crash at every round and somehow they managed to repair it each time, except the Brands Hatch races)
Broken promises award: A1 Team Pakistan ("We will race in Taupo" - nope; "We will race in Kyalami" - nope; "We will race in Portugal" - nope; "I'll race at Brands if my racing commitments allow" - nope. Disgraceful)
