The eleventh and final round of the 2006-07 A1GP World Cup of Motorsport will be hosted this weekend, 27th - 29th April, at the Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit in Great Britain with Canada represented on-track by Vancouver’s Sean McIntosh and Québec’s Kevin Lacroix.
McIntosh will again assume race duties for the Canadian outfit, the 21-year-old aiming to get the team back into the top-ten of the A1GP Nations Standings having scored Canada’s first points since January when he took the checkered flag in sixth place in Round 10’s Feature event two weeks ago in China. A storming performance from the former A1GP race-winner saw Sean sprint from the back of the Feature grid, having been taken out of the earlier Sprint race, through to sixth at the flag.
Canada heads into the Brands Hatch finale just two points shy of Mexico in tenth place (35-33) and with a maximum score of 17 points on offer from the weekend a strong outing at the 4.22km Grand Prix Circuit in Kent could solidify the Canadian team’s standing amongst the top-ten competing nations in A1GP for the second straight season having finished tenth overall in 2005-06.
McIntosh made his third start of the season in China earlier this month adding to the eight straight rounds he contested for Canada in last season’s inaugural A1GP series. Back then Brands Hatch had the honour of hosting the very first A1GP meeting in September 2005 and Canada called on McIntosh to lead its charge following some highly impressive performances competing in the Formula Renault UK Championship, where his five victories saw him crowned Vice-Champion behind fellow A1GP competitor, Great Britain’s Oliver Jarvis.
