Launched in 2005, the A1GP series was remarkable for various reasons. Every team & every driver represented their nation, making A1GP the “World Cup of Motorsports”. Another unique angle was that the series was primarily racing in the winter during the off-season of all major motorsport series. During the first few years, the series used spec-chassis by Lola before switching to Ferrari-built cars for the series’ final season.
