Calendar

The second A1 Grand Prix season consisted of 11 races held in 10 different countries. Each race is to be run over a three-day weekend, including a practice session on each of Friday and Saturday before a qualifying session on Saturday, and then two races on Sunday. Changes in the weekend program for second season included changing the time certain limits of the Sprint race to 20 minutes and Feature race to 70 minutes, and reducing the pointscore in the Sprint race to only the top six positions.

Calendar changes

  • A 12th race had been scheduled to have been held in Brazil; however, on 17 January 2007 the A1GP organisation announced that as a result of a delay in obtaining a local terrestrial television agreement then the event would be cancelled.[1]
  • After the finish to the Australian Feature race resulted in time certainty confusion, the time certain limits were reduced by a minute with an additional lap added after the time expired.

Entry list

24 teams, each representing a different country, signed up for the second A1 Grand Prix season. All teams and drivers competed in Zytek-powered, Cooper Avon-shod and Lola A1GP chassis.
