No Italian round
I just heard Mugello is off - cancelled. Ferrari based and no Italian round?
Don't make much sense to me ....... |

It does to me for reasons explained in another thread .
What doesn't make sense is the lack of a backup. I'd keep Vallelunga or Imola ready as an alternative. Then again, I have common sense. |

Yes but now they have Ferrari as partner it would have made sense to have a round in Italia

I see that Italy still have Piscopo in the car for the Donington test instead of one of the many ex-GP2 level type drivers floating around, and the car is still all White despite having supposedly unveiled their new livery. This team still doesn't appear very serious to me so I suspect they have not got very far with marketing or promotion either.
Ex racing drivers (even average ones) do not necessarily make good team bosses. I agree with Lam Pak for a change. |

why? ferrari doesnt sell more cars in italy than they sell in china or gb.
the enthusiasm in italy for a1gp is not on a full blown affair. you are italian say it. a1gp needs to go where the people show love and care. |
