By the sounds of it, thats not what A1 is all about. Far from it.
Its being aimed as a competition of Nations.
The drivers will not be famous......and why should they be?
The points are awarded to the teams rather than individuals.
Unfortunately many in the US dont know where Europe is, let alone some of the countries hosting the events, so it probably wont make a huge impact on that side of the pond.
