Autosport.com - Surtees leaves Team Great Britain

A1 Team Great Britain have announced that former world champion John Surtees is leaving the team ahead of the start of the third season of the season.

The squad said Surtees, team principal in the first two seasons, has decided to focus on other businesses and interests, including his son Henry's racing career.

"We are extremely thankful to John for providing not only his expertise in the early years of A1GP, but also for his passion for the series and recognizing the opportunities available for British racing talents," seat holder Tony Clements said.

"We wish him well with his future ventures and look forward to welcoming John and his family to an A1GP event in the near future."


How badly will this affect Team GB? He was doing a good job there and without doubt his experience helped to develop the team

Hard to say how much this will affect the team. Do we know who's taking over?

Shame to see John go. I'm sure he would have driven better than Robbie Kerr, if he'd been so inclined. <peek>

I personally don't see it affecting the team. They will do just fine.
