A1GP Team France Wins Championship by Default
More bad news for A1 Grand Prix fans as a second round of the series has been cancelled. The Laguna Seca round scheduled for next weekend has been axed after heavy rain washed the run-off area away and the circuit owners are expecting it to take weeks to repair.
It is the second time a race has been dropped after the Curitiba round in Brazil was removed from the original calendar. It was understood that the California circuit was also due to undergo safety modifications at the behest of motorcycle racers.
The news has not yet been posted on the A1 Grand Prix website. Confirmation of the cancellation will also make the French team the inaugural champions, although hardly in a satisfying manner. (Source: F1 Fanatic)

Can you please give me an appropriate credit on the above text and in future. Thank you.
Sorry Keith, as you may or may not have noticed most of my posts do contain a link to the original in one form or another. My normal exceptions are press release type posts. At the moment I can’t recall why I missed you link but it has been added and will also note the Laguna Seca round looks like it has been saved.
That’s cool thanks for clearing that up.
