Really? Perhaps you should tell that to the series organisers of GP2 or Superleague Formula or even Formula Nippon. Both series have cars that are signifcantly faster than the A1 GP machine, and both series do not allow testing in between races, as with A1 GP the cars are put into containers and transported to the next race venue.
The A1 GP organisers could have, and should have in my opinion made it clear to Ferrari that they wanted cars with a good level of performance. A1 GP is trying to attract some of the best talent outside F1, and at the moment it really isnt doing so, where are all the current main series GP2 drivers? Where are the IRL drivers? For me the series isnt attracting the same sort of driving talent now as it was a couple of years ago. I really had high hopes for the new A1 GP car but other than giving the series a slight boost in terms of promotion it doesent really seem to have done much. IMO.
