Australian GP organizers plan legal action against new series

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) - Australian Formula One Grand Prix organizers are planning legal action against promoters of the new A1 auto racing series, which is due to start next week.
Australian Grand Prix Corporation chairman Ron Walker issued a statement Friday saying A1's use of the phrase "A1 Grand Prix" infringes the Corporation's intellectual property rights.
"It is unfortunate that the matter has come to this, however, the Corporation must protect its valuable intellectual property in relation to the Grand Prix." Walker said.
The A1 series, which is being billed as the World Cup of auto racing, was devised by Sheik Maktoum Hasher Maktoum, a member of Dubai's ruling family.
The 12 weekend series will feature 23 national teams owned and driven by local people, starting Sept. 25 at Brands Hatch, England, and finishing April 2, 2006 in Shanghai, China.
Alan Jones, the 1980 F1 drivers' champion, is chairman of the Australian A1 team. Australia will host a race at Eastern Creek, Sydney, on Nov. 6.
All A1 cars will be the same: 550-horsepower Zytec-powered, open wheel racers that Maktoum has bought from Britain's Lola Cars.
The Australian Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne has been the opening stop on the F1 circuit in recent seasons, but has shifted back in the 2006 program because Melbourne is hosting the Commonwealth Games in the usual March timeslot.

The heart of every racing car is undoubtedly its engine. The sound of a racing engine revving at full load is enough to make the hairs on the back of any racing fan's neck rise. When the engine wails, the discerning ear can tell how many cylinders the car has and eight-cylinder V-formation engines have been the favourite of drivers and engineers for years.
The all-new A1 Engine, code-named ZA1348, was developed specifically for the A1 Car by the team at Zytek Engineering.
A 3.4-litre V8 unit developing 520 bhp (550 bhp in PowerBoost mode), Zytek used its considerable expertise in theoretical analysis and practical experience to design the unit. It's got advanced electronic fuel injection, quad cams and four valves per cylinder to ensure exceptional fuel delivery even under high lateral g-forces.
Each A1 Engine will be powerful, flexible and durable - the engine block will last all season. Made of aluminium alloy, the engine block and head deliver the performance of a heavyweight in a flyweight package.
Despite its immense power the new engine weighs only 120kg - making the A1 Engine one of the lightest 3.4-litre racing engines ever made.
