Going back to what Neil Jani said originally, part of it was that it had taken him time to adapt afresh to A1GP after his F1 testing. He said that was why he had not been on the pace straightaway in Beijing. Actually it would have been a miracle if he had been, considering the circuit and the absence of pre-race testing!

As the F1 tyres are harder for next year and the cars slide more at the moment, maybe the difference won't be so great in future, although I expect the F1 boffins will soon get a handle on the tyres and make things better.
