A1 Team Pakistan was the representative team of Pakistan in the former A1 Grand Prix motor racing series.

History[edit]

2005–06 season[edit]

A1 Team Pakistan was launched in front of the Lahore Fort. Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf was a guest at the event, hosted by A1 Team Pakistan Chairman Arif Hussain and its managing director, Chaudry Salik Hussain. The team was to be run by Super Nova Racing.

Nur Ali was the first driver to be named in A1GP, but was replaced before the first round with British-born driver Adam Khan.

In the first race at Brands Hatch, Adam Khan qualified in 7th place and finished the sprint race in 8th. The team had problems in the pit stop in the feature race and resulted in Khan finishing 13th. Following this, the team failed to score a point until the final race in China where Khan finished fifth. The team missed three rounds after Khan was injured in a practice crash in South Africa, although Enrico Toccacelo was drafted in as a non-scoring substitute driver for said weekend. Pakistan finished 20th in the standings with a total of 10 points.

2006–07 season[edit]

Khan left the team, and Nur Ali was recalled to race in season two. Swedish outfit Performance Racing took over the running of the team from Super Nova. Ali contested the full season, qualified last at every round (bar Beijing where qualifying was cancelled) and scored the teams' only point as the last classified finisher in the South African feature race.

2007–08 season[edit]

Khan returned to the squad for season three. Khan's only point of the season came when he finished 10th in the sprint race in New Zealand.

2008–09 season[edit]

On 10 September 2008, Khan was announced as both the driver and team seat holder for the 2008–09 season. Team Craft took over the running of the team. The team failed to appear at any events that season, initially due to problems with Khan fitting in the new chassis and later due to date-clashes with Khan's duties as demonstration driver for the Renault F1 Team.[1][2]
