Jani fastest in Saturday practice
Title challengers Team Switzerland set the pace in final free practice in Durban, in yet another crash-filled A1GP session
Neel Jani picked his way through the four red-flag periods to record the fastest time of the weekend so far - 1:18.292
Michael Ammermuller continued his and Germany's good form with second, while Loic Duval did a brilliant job to take third for France, having only arrived in South Africa last night due to testing commitments in Japan.
Oliver Jarvis ended his session for Team Great Britain with his car parked in the hairpin run-off, but the Macau GP winner was fourth fastest, just two tenths of a second off the Swiss car. In fact, just a second covered Jani in first and Adam Carroll's Team Ireland car in 13th.
Friday pace-setters Jeroen Bleekemolen and Team Holland were sixth fastest, while local ace Adrian Zaugg jumped into eighth with a decent late effort for Team South Africa.
