drivers rather than affluent businessmen. Of the 22 drivers in the field for each round, 16 were "career drivers", with a group of around six gentleman drivers" remaining. The number of races increased from 15 in 2006 to 20, the number of meetings increasing from six to eight. Despite this 33 per cent increase, the cost of competing in the series was reduced, the advertised price of £55,000 plus VAT being a reduction of nearly £3,000 on the 2006 season.
The race calendar for 2007, while expanded, did not feature any meetings outside of the UK. However, FPA continues to support large international events at Brands Hatch
such as A1 Grand Prix
and DTM
.
on Easter
Saturday, with a pair of 22-lap races scheduled for the 1.6-mile National circuit. Series newcomer Matthew Hamilton
took both pole positions
after topping the two qualifying sessions on Saturday morning, having come out on top of a bizarre tiebreak in the second session. Both Hamilton and Luciano Bacheta
set identical fastest times of 55.328 seconds. Hamilton was awarded pole having set the time before Bacheta did.
Bacheta took the lead at the start of Round 1 with Hamilton slotting into second. They would be forced to hold station for the opening laps as the safety car
was deployed for a collision between Jack Clarke and Andreas Demetriou
at Becketts. At the restart on lap seven, Bacheta held off Hamilton, but was passed by him down the National Straight half a lap later. Hamilton went on to win the race by around two seconds, with Jason Moore
taking a podium
in his first-ever car race, holding off more experienced drivers Dominik Jackson
and Tim Bridgman
on the final lap to take third.
The start of Round 2 was marred by a serious crash at the startline. A fast-changing red starting light caused some drivers to miss the start, including polesitter Hamilton who was then hit from behind by numerous other cars as they charged off the grid around Woodcote Bend. Hamilton was extracted from the cockpit and airlifted to hospital in Coventry
with a broken right femur
. After a delay of around an hour, the race restarted with Bacheta leading away Clarke, who then assumed the lead on lap three. On lap six Clarke spun at Luffield and resumed in sixth (where he would finish the race), leaving Bacheta to take the victory. Stefan Wilson
and Moore charged through the field to take second and third respectively.
Grand Prix
circuit in Kent
, where a trio of 16-lap races on the 2.3-mile track would support the final round of A1GP's
second season.
Friday's qualifying sessions for the first two races of the weekend saw Jolyon Palmer
and Tim Bridgman
take the pole positions, with points leader Luciano Bacheta
having to settle for a pair of fourths. In Saturday morning's first race (Round 3), Bridgman took the lead from the start and pulled away to take his first victory of the season. Behind, Palmer's challenge for a first podium of 2007 ended with a crash at Surtees. Bacheta took second, with Giacomo Petrobelli in third after withstanding pressure from Dominik Jackson
in the closing laps.
In Round 4 on Saturday afternoon, Bridgman held first place from the start, while Stefan Wilson
kept his second-place grid position as he stayed in touch with the leader. Late in the race, Wilson started to reel in Bridgman, using his turbo boost to pass him on lap 13, and going on to take his first car racing win at only his 10th attempt. Bacheta took third, ahead of Palmer.
Round 5 took place on Sunday, with Palmer being awarded pole position for setting the fastest lap over the previous day's races. Once again, Palmer lost the lead at the start, Bacheta hitting the front to take his second win of the campaign. Palmer spent the latter stages of the race trying to hold off Bridgman, who made it past at Paddock Hill Bend on the penultimate lap, only for Palmer to dive up the inside at Pilgrim's Drop half a lap later to reclaim the position.
in Norfolk
. In qualifying, Luciano Bacheta
and Jack Clarke both took their first pole positions of the season in overcast conditions, although Bacheta could only manage fifth on the grid for the second race. Tim Bridgman
would start both races from second.
Sunday's race day, the only day all season to include three races, was marred by changeable weather conditions. Round 6 was held in light rain, with Bridgman making the best start to take the lead and pull away from Bacheta. Further back, Tom Bradshaw
was scything through the field and catching Bacheta quickly in the latter stages. Then, Bridgman spun on the 16th lap of 18 at Russell chicane, allowing Bacheta and Bradshaw through to fight for the victory. That fight never materialised, a red flag being thrown on the last lap for a spinning backmarker at the Esses, ensuring Bacheta's third win of the season from Bradshaw and Bridgman.
A break in the rain shortly before Round 7 caused the field to make last-minute changes to slick tyres. Once again, Bridgman made the best start from second, and made up for his earlier mistake by leading all the way to victory. Bacheta, meanwhile, suffered his first retirement of the season, tangling with polesitter Clarke at the Esses on the opening lap while fighting for second. Tom Bradshaw inherited second and held it to the end, securing pole for the Round 8 in the process with fastest lap, while Stefan Wilson
came out on top of a battle with friend Richard Plant
for third.
Round 8 was held in torrential rain, with the first three laps run behind the safety car at slow speed. When the race finally got underway with a rolling start, poleman Bradshaw left the door open for Bridgman at Riches, who made a robust move to take the lead. Bradshaw ran out of road, spinning on to the grass, although he later rejoined to finish 12th. Bridgman cruised from then on to a 10-second victory over Stefan Wilson, with Richard Kent
securing his first car racing podium in third. For Bacheta, the race was much more eventful as he fought his way up from 19th on the grid to finish fifth. This meant he held on to his championship lead by just two points from Bridgman, with Wilson another three further back.
