According Sportmotores , A1 Team Spain practically confirmed.

Maybe it's Fernando Alonso, given that he's making himself as popular as a fart in a spacesuit in F1. Someone said he'll be in a Ferrari in 2009 - damn right ... a A1 one!

I just get an error message on that website when I click on the link.

Great news if it's true. Spain would not struggle to find drivers considering how many have been floating around at GP2/WSR kind of level in recent years.

Considering Alonso is destroying Piquet perhaps a more likely scenario is seeing Piquet back for A1GP Team Brazil at some point...

kerrmanningjarv · 13 Jun 2008, 05:26 (Ref:2227490)

Great news - Spain have so many good young drivers that could be effective in A1GP. I would personally want to see driveless Borja Garcia get the seat if the team happens.

didnt even occur to me that spain wasnt in a1 - great news, they will have no problem finding a driver & a budget...

Peter Dunne · 15 Jun 2008, 16:49 (Ref:2229508)

Good news for Spanish four wheel fans in what has traditionally been a two wheeled country

According Spormotores , Racing Engineering and Alfonso , but there are not confirmed , for the moment i think it´s only a rumour.

kfsracer · 22 Jun 2008, 08:21 (Ref:2234504)

From what I heard, Alfonso indeed

bradrive · 27 Jun 2008, 10:56 (Ref:2238645)

A1gGP Spain will be run by an already existing team based in Martorell...

kerrmanningjarv · 27 Jun 2008, 15:05 (Ref:2238784)

^ Do you have an article or something about that please?

I doubt it , very simple , if you have not money for GP2 , no money for A1 GP at Spain . . .

META4 · 29 Jun 2008, 19:02 (Ref:2239941)

Isn't it Alfonso D'Orleans owner of the A1GP Spain Franchise? If it is the case then it will make more sense that RE will run the team ... and it would not surprise me to NOT see a Driver like Borja Garcia driving for them

TilkeWannabe · 30 Jun 2008, 06:33 (Ref:2240186)

I've only just decided to speak my mind on this thread, so if the drivers have been chosen, or which drivers are to be considered, please tell tell. Bottom line from me is, I say it should happen.

META4 · 30 Jun 2008, 11:38 (Ref:2240370)

My point of View was if RE is gonna run A1GP team Spain , i would be surprised to See Borja Garcia drive for them as last time Garcia drove for RE he left the team in not the best terms...

Maybe then we could see Javier Villa driving for them as i am not sure if he would consider to race one more season in GP2 (2009)

MAybe that would also explain the reason why RE did not enter GP2 Asia , as they were already thinking about this new project

but all of that is just suppositions

Adri_tifosi · 30 Jun 2008, 11:41 (Ref:2240373)

At the moment Borja Garcia is linked with Sevilla FC Team in Super League.

And of course , I am very sure , Borja will not drive never more for RE.

now that spain is european footbal champion the country is united and a1gp makes sense. villa, mendez, clos, campos-hull were good drivers for them

It didn't make sense before?

If A1GP Spain is going to happen (and it will be decided within the 2 next weeks), it will be run by a team based at Martorell, which currently is running in the WTTC. Team name: S....d

Are you talking about Sunred ?

Sunred has no the experience for run this type of team , they are a mid team in GT´s and Tourism but no at single seaters.

Can anybody comfirm who is the owner of the Spanish Licence? Is it AOB?

Adri_tifosi · 13 Aug 2008, 10:30 (Ref:2268364)

According Sport Motores , A1 Team Spain is resolving small economics problems , and maybe we will have another country.

BIg economic problems. The project is far from being financed yet and everything is delayed to the point that it is unlikely (yet not impossible) to happen.

Yes I know , I think the team will not be ready for this year.

But Sport Motores announce as "Flecos Economicos".
