Zaugg and Jarvis take the first 2 rounds in Zandvoort!

Thoughts:
1: Hinch...you failure.
2: Buddy Rice is NOT the man for A1!!  Summerton had a podium, Speed's good, hell Graham Rahal's good!  Hell, give Pastrana a chance, he was the star in the RoC for us!  Come on!  We have talent!
3: Oliver Jarvis...who is he?  2 wins.  He's the man, really.  18-ish.  I see potential.
4: No Hulkenberg...what's he up to?

The description should say No One...not none...

Yep Jarvis is good, or at least better than a certain Robbie Kerr.

Sadly I can't watch until tomorrow because I don't have the right channels.

I can't watch until December.  But I'll be at work when they air it.  Same with V8 Supercars.

I like Robbie Kerr.  He's not as good as Jarvis, but he's a good personality, and he impressed me mroe than Hulkenberg at Malaysia...the only race I got to watch as I was on a Christmas break.

December, wow that's crap!

Can't remember Malaysia, but Hulkenberg made all the others look like children last year, it was just funny how much he dominated - I wonder if the same will happen again this year.

I hope not...since you can overtake well.

Malaysia it was raining...Hulky had a 14 second lead, but Kerr was making some insane overtakes.

Yeah there were some great passes last year, I love the onboard footage in A1 - you can really see the drivers working. Also the series has some different tracks to a lot of others.

Yeah, Zandvoort's cool, IMO.

I heard from Hinch that they might come to Mont-Tremblant or Mosport next year...two of my favorite race tracks ever (both in Canada)

Zandvoort is an amazing drivers circuit, I think it's brilliant! Also from the same guy, John Hugenholtz, who designed Suzuka and many other great circuits.

A1 also has Brands Hatch, Brno, Eastern Creek & Durban street circuit which I quite like.

Yeah I like Durban too!

And Brands is awesome.  Champ Car might race there next year, according to Robin Miller, Autosport, etc.

Hopefully ChampCar will do that, would be very good for the series in my opinion. I like CCWS but it does need some fresh tracks.

Yep, also going to the Wimpy Nurburgring next year.  So CCWS will have 4 European dates.  Also heard rumors of Greece having a street race.

And I agree, we need more permanent circuits on the schedule.  CCWS is a lot of fun there.  Also need more ovals, to make it resemble CART.

Just watched the race, loads of passing! Also some brilliant commentry from Ben Edwards, John Watson I found a little boring - sort of like Walker but without any of the passion, but still makes some mistakes.
