A1 Team Great Britain has recalled Danny Watts for next weekend’s races in at the new-to-A1GP circuit in Gauteng, South Africa.
Watts made himself unavailable for selection at the last round in Taupo, due to his partner giving birth to their baby son. Former Champ Car driver Dan Clarke stood in for Watts.
However, the 29-year-old, who scored two podiums on the last new-to-A1GP track in Chengdu, will return to race for the team.
“I am delighted to welcome back Danny and I am very much looking forward to the new challenges that A1GP Gauteng will present,” said team principal Katie Clements.
“The team has always had the ability to adapt to a new circuit quickly, and I know the same is true of Danny. We know the team and Danny collectively have the talent and pace to be running up the front. While it is true that we are not where we wanted to be at this stage of the season, there are a lot of points available over the weekend and as always we will be putting in 110 per cent effort to score as high as possible to be in the fight at the front of the championship.”
The team rests in 10th place in the championship, with just the 16 points that Watts scored in Chengdu on the board. “We’re sort of struggling in the points department at the moment so next weekend we’ve got to go out and get a really good result,” said Watts. “A couple of podiums would be good. We’ll all be putting in our best efforts as normal.”
