Yes, of that there is no debate.

Bit like Red Bull buying the FIA....

Right, snip that out of the race weekend thread and stick the two threads taking about the same press release together

luke · 1 Apr 2006, 12:16 (Ref:1566906)

And you fell for it.

Knowlesy · 1 Apr 2006, 12:20 (Ref:1566911)

Certainly did.

Well, 75% fell for it anyways. Still shocking.

madmed · 1 Apr 2006, 13:52 (Ref:1566951)

I dont think this is serious cus there will be no one to buy a ticket to die in baghdad. Maybe the race is for the Us navy

Knowlesy · 1 Apr 2006, 14:45 (Ref:1566964)

Well of course it isn't serious!

Fiorentina 1 · 1 Apr 2006, 16:13 (Ref:1567001)

Brilliant! I fell for it for a bit....

Whitestar · 1 Apr 2006, 16:21 (Ref:1567007)

The Venice street race could be fun

Especially if it rains

Sheila M · 1 Apr 2006, 20:01 (Ref:1567109)

I think the Canvey Island tri-oval race will be fun! And the Isle of Dogs will be a street race round Canary Wharf (or should that be Canary Woof?)

That would be a marathon then?

SALEEN S7R · 1 Apr 2006, 22:38 (Ref:1567238)

Hmm, good idea in theory, close off a huge chunk of motorway and some A roads in the surrounding area for twisty sections with the motorway as the back straight. A pity it will never happen...

Knowlesy · 1 Apr 2006, 22:42 (Ref:1567247)

The cars will be shaken to bits over the general shambolic state of the roads though....

Still, the roadworks equipment that always seems to be on hand in this country could double up as some nifty temporary chicanes.

C.U.Motorsport · 1 Apr 2006, 22:48 (Ref:1567253)

They could use the A1 road but with the amount of speed cameras there, only france with all their prize money could afford the fines (Memorys of the rally where they all got speeding fines lol)

Knowlesy · 1 Apr 2006, 22:50 (Ref:1567258)

Well they could always run on the pit limiter.

Not terribly exciting, I grant you....

SALEEN S7R · 1 Apr 2006, 22:53 (Ref:1567262)

Hmm, just imagine the police making a mistake and thinking they are all speeders. Good luck catching those cars guys.

madmed · 2 Apr 2006, 08:15 (Ref:1567570)

they had removed the link from the a1gp site

ausracefan · 2 Apr 2006, 11:32 (Ref:1567759)

I think its great, it just shows that A1GP can make fun of itselves.

And whoelse see this as a bashing of people in forums, willing to jump on anything which looks like it could contain anything important about the next season

Hepatic · 2 Apr 2006, 15:23 (Ref:1568006)

PMSL, love it! That's the kinda thing lost on Mr Ecclestone and his associates, good on ya A1GP

Miranda · 4 Apr 2006, 10:31 (Ref:1569950)
