The 2009–10 A1 Grand Prix season would have been the fifth season of the A1 Grand Prix series. However, due to the series' financial insolvency, none of the originally scheduled races actually took place. It would have been the first season of a three-year deal with IMG Sports Media to handle all worldwide media rights for the series. Following doubts that the season would go ahead due to financial constraints and reports that engine suppliers Ferrari would pull out over non-payments, chairman of A1 Grand Prix Tony Teixeira, announced that the series had secured its long-term future, following a financial restructuring. Doubts were reinforced by the high profile cancellation of the season's scheduled opening round in Australia for October 25. With the Malaysian and Chinese rounds cancelled, the season was reduced to having only rounds occurring in 2010. The circuit meant to stage the Dutch event, then pre-empted likely cancellation by scheduling a different event for that date. By May 2010, none of the remaining scheduled races had taken place, confirming the end of A1GP. ==Teams== Prior to the official list of teams originally supposed to compete in Australia being revealed, it was rumoured that the entry list would contain 20 teams, including a brand new team, and a revival of an older team. An official teams list for the Australian round was released on Tuesday 13 October. The provisional list showed 19 teams, with Canada, Korea, Lebanon and Malaysia not returning. Several drivers had provisionally signed up for their respective nations including John Martin, Felipe Guimarães, Zahir Ali, Satrio Hermanto,〔 Fairuz Fauzy, Aaron Lim, Luis Díaz, Salvador Durán, Robert Doornbos and Jeroen Bleekemolen. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2009–10 A1 Grand Prix season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
