Not a sell out crowd but certainly a large one.

Following a fire in the car during the Sprint race, when an electrical component in the wiring loom burnt out, A1Team Monaco has taken their front row slot for the Feature race.

Will this be a cool race for A1Team Ireland for the Championship — 5th or better will do it.

Still the problems dog A1GP this season as the Live Timing system is not available for the fans.

On their out lap to the grid A1Team Malaysia ended up in the gravel and the car requires some repairs — they will have to start from the pit lane.

There may be a penalty for A1Team Germany whose mechanics were late leaving the grid when the car wouldn’t fire up properly.

All cars, apart from Malaysia in the pit lane, complete the warm-up lap.

Delayed start as A1Team South Africa has problem on the start grid — cars go round for another warm-up lap — RSA gets going and will start from the back.

Malaysia now has problems with the delayed start and goes back to their pit garage.

Oh dear — China, India and USA go off at Paddock Hill Bend at start with Safety Car immediately called.

Ireland got a good start and led into Druids.

The order behind Safety Car is IRL, MON, NED, SUI, POR, NZL, AUS, FRA, GBR and ITA.

Live Timing is back but from different web address.
