New Zealand carried their fine form from the last A1GP season into pre-season testing as Jonny Reid set the fastest time at Silverstone on Tuesday.

Reid set the fastest ever lap for an A1GP car around Silverstone's National circuit layout, which was last used by the cars in 2005, when Alexandre Premat set the best time for Team France.

From http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/62541

Times (also from Autosprout):
Pos Team Driver Time Laps
1. New Zealand Jonny Reid 48.102 141
2. India Narain Kathikeyan 48.362 102
3. Netherlands Jeroen Bleekemolen 48.373 115
4. France Loic Duval 48.395 154
5. China Cong Fu Cheng 48.421 93
6. Great Britain Oliver Jarvis 48.432 85
7. South Africa Adrian Zaugg 48.540 109
8. Germany Christian Vietoris 48.567 94
9. Canada James Hinchcliffe 48.570 93
10. Ireland Ralph Firman 48.688 113
11. Switzerland Neel Jani 48.742 168
12. Pakistan Adam Khan 48.765 79
13. USA Buddy Rice 48.821 130
14. Malaysia Alex Yoong 48.890 94
15. Brazil Sergio Jimenez 48.925 111
16. Italy Enrico Toccacelo 48.956 138
17. Australia Ian Dyk 49.063 139
18. Portugal Joao Urbano 49.140 123
19. Lebanon Chris Alajajian 49.180 147
20. Czech Republic Erik Janis 49.213 135
21. Indonesia Satrio Hermanto 49.221 130
22. Mexico Juan Pablo Garcia 50.288 134

I hope New Zealand and Ireland can keep up that kind of pace - they're in my Fantasy A1GP team! Australia look a bit sluggish, though. Switzerland seem to be struggling even with Neel Jani, who did a great job for them in the first season. <think>

I don't think so, but not 100% sure

Don't think so. As far as I understand it the teams don't have to confirm their lineup until the Friday afternoon of the race weekend.
