Summerton to race for A1 Team USA

Rookie driver Jonathan Summerton will enjoy his A1GP race debut at the Durban Grand Prix this weekend for A1 Team USA. Summerton already took part in the rookie session in The Netherlands, Czech Republic and Australia for the A1 Team USA and will now get the chance to show what he can do in the race.

A1 Team USA was pleased with Summerton's performance and now gives him the chance to race on Sunday. "We made the commitment to develop Jonathan during several A1GP races this season and his performance in Australia showed that our investment in him has the potential to pay big dividends," said A1 TEAM USA owner Rick Weidinger. "We are really excited about getting Jonathan in the car for the race in Durban. We are due for another podium finish and we hope to see Jonathan up there representing A1 TEAM USA next Sunday."

"I am really looking forward to my debut race in the A1GP series with TEAM USA," said Summerton. "It is my first race in the car but I still am expecting to finish at the top. I hope to show the team that I am capable of winning and continue my way up to the podium."
