A1 Grand Prix 2008

A1 Grand Prix

Sonic Substance's James Preston was down on the track and in the pit, getting some of the most exclusive interviews with the best drivers. We've uploaded 7 of the most significant podcasts pertaining to the Durban leg of the A1GP 2007/08 season. Along with interviews with the top 3 drivers, we also have interviews with Team SA Driver Adrian Zaugg, a unique Golf Cart experience, inspiring words from the young Canada driver, and an indepth interview with official race commentator and A1GP media specialist, Bruce Jones who had some positive words to say about Durban!

There is also a great interview with Neel Jani, driver for Team Switzerland who came 1st at A1 in Durban. I was on the A1 golf cart from the press centre to the A1 team suites, along with Neel Jani, his manager Max, and Fillippe Albequerque, driver for Team Portugal. While I was chatting to the guys, I asked Neel if he was going to watch any Euro 2008 games. For those that don't know, Switzerland and Austria are hosting the UEFA European Football Champions 2008 (which England didn't qualify for). Turns out Neel will be selling hamburgers in one of the stadiums! Download podcast 5 to hear what Neel had to say. Podcast 6 was great fun as Fillippe had taken the wheel of the Golf Cart and things were getting out of hand!
