Robbie Kerr will drive there now and, with the timeframes and logistics involved, he’ll do Australia as well. Hopefully, I’ll get a chance to race again for Great Britain but, at this stage, we just need to wait and see how things pan out with all our various schedules.
Q:
As the second season of A1GP reaches the halfway stage in New Zealand, what’s your take on the season so-far and the progress of the British team?
OJ:
I think the British team has progressed well since the start of the season. Without a doubt, the A1GP Series is a lot stronger this year and that’s been reflected in some of our results. We’ve been a little unlucky at times and we’re still aiming for that first A1GP victory but, all things considered, we’re sitting second in the championship and still firmly in the fight. From my own point of view, I’d love to get back into the British A1GP car and be the one to take that first win but, either way, I don’t think it can be long in coming given the team’s overall competitiveness.
Q:
What have you taken from your A1GP experiences to date, the notable highlight being your second place podium finish in China last November?
OJ:
I’ve taken a lot from my time in the series already. Meeting and competing against new drivers while being given the opportunity to tour the world has just been fantastic. It’s been good to get in and drive a slightly more powerful car than I’ve been used to, and all the experience I’ve racked up will undoubtedly benefit me as I progress my career.
