More A1GP cancellations

The troubled A1GP series has called off its second and third rounds of the season in China and Malaysia after cancelling the opening race in Australia for financial reasons.

'We've had to postpone them,' a spokeswoman said of the races in Zhuhai and Sepang on 15 November and 6 December.

'The local organisers are still willing to run them but we can't make the dates on the calendar.'

The self-styled World Cup of Motorsport scrapped last month's opening race at Surfers Paradise due to its British operating arm, which has the cars, going into liquidation. The fourth race is scheduled for South Africa on 28 February.
