Team Netherlands driver Jeroen Bleekemolen was fastest in today's free practice session for the A1GP Beijing street race, but the rest of the day's running has been canned after more circuit problems surfaced during the session.
The temporary track was heavily revised and shortened overnight after the problems caused by the tight hairpin yesterday. The hairpin was effectively shifted further back up the track, into a position which allowed the cars more room at the exit.
Although a half hour of clean and steady practice proved that this solution was workable (if ultra-slow), a new problem appeared when manhole covers began to lift.
The session was red-flagged and the rest of the day's running has been called off while a solution is sought.
Various ways of rescuing some racing this weekend are now being discussed. There have been suggestions that the grid will be determined by the times from this session, or by the championship standings.
