The Lola A1GP was a vehicle designed to compete in the A1 Grand Prix. The car was standardised for every team to provide a level playing field for competing nations. It was designed to reduce the volume of "dirty air", allowing drivers to close in on the car in front, encouraging overtaking. The bodywork was mainly pre-impregnated carbon fibre composites.[1] From 2008–09 Ferrari was consulted on the design and manufacture for all A1 Grand Prix cars.[2] From the 2008-2009 season the Lola A1GP car was replaced by the A1GP Powered by Ferrari car.
