Leading from start to finish A1 Team USA set the pace.

A1 Team USA was pleased with day two of testing, at the Paul Ricard high tech test track, with team owner Rick Weidinger commenting, "Scott Speed and Colin Fleming have done an excellent job for A1 Team USA." Rick continued, "We look forward to the final test session tomorrow with Matt Jaskol taking the wheel for his first session in A1 Team USA's 'We the People' race car."

Rick Weidinger commented from France, "A1 Team USA is obligated to attract the best team to perform for their country on the track and in the garage, and judging by the first two days of testing it looks like we are heading in the right direction. Following on from the unveiling of A1 Team USA's 'We the People' race car I am very pleased by the way that the racing team is operating. A1 Team USA showed great consistency in France, but we recognize that running fast times in testing is only the first step to winning hardware in the A1 GP Series."

A1 Team USA has been contacted by both experienced and young US drivers interested in experiencing the challenge of international motor sport, and the unique opportunity that A1 Grand Prix offers in representing your country.
