Hulenberg wins British A1 GP

Kent:

German teenager Nico Hulenberg won Sunday's season-closing British A1 Grand Prix in 1 hour, 11 minutes, 1.907 seconds.

Germany won the series that bills itself as the World Cup of motorsport earlier this month in China.

Hulenberg, a 19-year-old forklift driver, won his ninth race of the season. He passed Robbie Kerr of Britain on the first corner at the 4.42-kilometer Brands Hatch circuit.

Kerr, who started in pole position, briefly regained the lead on the 16th lap. Only two seconds separated the pair during the 50-lap race.

Enrico Toccacelo of Italy held off India's Narain Karthikeyan to finish third by a tenth of a second. Kerr won the 15-lap sprint race.
