Great Britain have been backed in their protest by reigning world champions France, who finished third in the race with Nicolas Lapierre.

You can always count on the French to be there when they need you...

interesting. I missed the incident but if he was outside his pit box then it's against the rules AFAIK.

I'm reading Zanardi's autobiography at the moment and came across his account of the F3 Eurocup just before hearing the A1GP story:

Michael Schumacher won with Zanardi second but the former had restarted the race (after a red flag) in a car with a different engine, which is against the rules. To gather proof Zanardi's team asked Michael if they could take a photo of the F3 European champion with his car - Schuey happily obliged and they took the picture with the engine name on view. At least they thought it was, in fact they even went back to ask for another photo and got him disqualified
