Several feature race drivers seemed to be asleep, as all drivers should know that the lights can go out anywhere between 1 & 5 seconds. It looked as though the lights went out after just one second and some were probably still building up their revs.
Switzerland seemed to be harshly treated but at least they set the fastest lap.
The top of the table has now tightened up with the three top teams on 82 and 80 points. That is great for the series.
Taupo needs to try and sort out the dust problem, though it has always been a slippery circuit. I slid off on a cruising practice lap a few years ago. Not funny.
Maybe the A1 GP will eventually move to the brand new circuit now being built just south of Auckland, and ready to run in exactly one year's time? Hampton Downs.
