Kerr sprints to victory

Team Great Britain’s Robbie Kerr won the sprint race on the final day of the A1GP season at Brands Hatch as Switzerland clinched the title.

Kerr, starting from pole after a fine qualifying session yesterday, came home 1.126 seconds ahead of USA’s Jonathan Summerton, with Ireland’s Adam Carroll third.

Neel Jani sealed the championship for the Swiss by claiming fourth - comfortably exceeding the seventh-place finish required to take the crown.

New Zealand needed to come second to have any chance of overhauling Switzerland but they could manage no better than eighth.

The feature race begins at 1430.
