The official web site: http://www.a1gp.com
I see that Italy have a team but I haven't found any details, drivers etc.

Who will show A1, same channels that show F1?

which is why the owner of A1 GP said himself that its not meant to compete with them? if they were going to compete why would he make sure that the series starts when the F1 series ends?

I'm Japanese so I'm naturally waiting for Japan to announce their participation. Japan has a colorful assortment of driving talent. Most likely, they'll choose the best from Formula Japan--their open wheel sprint car series.

I saw an ad for it last night, i can't remember what channel though. I have a dark feeling that it will be Fox Sports images/smilies/thumbdown.gif

But a control car with nations competing against each other? Brilliant, excellent! Such a good idea!
