If it all goes to plan, a fresh take on the A1 GP theme will be launched in December 2024, providing drivers with a new opportunity to race powerful single-seaters. adamcooperF1 explains the ambitious plans. ⬇️
The original series, which was launched in 2005, was generally regarded as successful. It attracted good teams and talented drivers – Nico Hulkenberg used it as a key stepping stone to Formula 1 – and the concept of nations battling each other was popular with fans.
“It's an exciting project, but also for me, it's a great challenge to start something from scratch and build from zero. So I think the combination was what decided me to get involved in this. "It's a revival of the concept, really,” he says. “It's not a revival of the A1 GP championship, it's a new championship, but using the same concept.
“But all I can say is at this stage it's very positive. It's advanced significantly, and we’re optimistic about securing all the funds that we need.”Photo by: Mark Sutton /Budkowski says there’s no shortage of potential partners, stating that"a lot of people have expressed interest".
“But there were a number of flaws in the commercial model. I don't want to use strong words, but it wasn't all very clean and bulletproof, in terms of the financial part. We're building something from scratch and on solid foundations.”“The commercial model of the teams and of the various stakeholders wasn't good enough,” says Budkowski.
“We're having a number of discussions with venues and promoters already. The model we're presenting them is extremely interesting, at a fraction of the cost or what is necessary to run an F1 event, and it will be the same for the team model. One of the pillars of what we're building is commercial sustainability of all the players involved.”
