Andretti to race in China for Team USA
04 November 2008Marco Andretti has been confirmed as the USA's driver for this weekend's second championship round in Chengdu, China. As team boss Michael Andretti indicated was likely in Zandvoort, his 21-year-old son will pilot the car for the series maiden visit to Chengdu, after Charlie Kimball returned to race in Zandvoort last month.

"Getting to race in China is something I'm really looking forward to," Marco said. "Although A1GP is new to Andretti Green Racing, I thought that the crew did a great job with the first race. They had to put in a lot of effort just to get on track and they were able to get the car up to speed rather quickly.
"I know there is a possibility that the weather could add another element to the race and that should only make the race more challenging for the drivers and more entertaining for the fans."
Marco Andretti and Andretti Green Racing's other US IndyCar driver, Danica Patrick, will both race this season, and the team will likely announce its choice on a race-by-race basis.
The A1GP car will be the third type of car Marco Andretti will have raced this season, after his seventh place finish in the IRL IndyCar championship and his three races in the American Le Mans sportscar series.
