A1GP Democars - Lammers 2005-2008
The A1 Grand Prix Series ran four split seasons, 2005/2006 through 2008/2009. It never fulfilled the objective of drawing F1 fans during the Northern Hemisphere Winter.
This was one of a series of 'Presentation Cars' that may not be representative of the vehicles that actually raced. It appears that Amalgam did this for three A1GP split seasons beginning with 2005/2006. There is no mention of any 1:43 models on their website today. The company makes high quality models and these sold for twice the price of a Minichamps. In the secondary market, they are very inexpensive. They may be of interest as an early ride for some sportscar and Indycar names.
Jan Lammers was the 'seat holder' for the Netherlands team but was not a driver in any of the races. This car seems to have been created to introduce the series to the public and it carries the flags of all the participating nations, rather than the orange livery of the Netherlands team. Lammer probably drove the car for the press conference.
