The 2008 FIA GT Season Preview

The FIA GT championship kicks off at Silverstone this weekend, and Steven English has been browsing through the form guide. Here are his conclusions

The familiar battle between Maserati, Aston Martin, and Chevrolet will rage again this year, although with some slightly different faces to the ones who played out 2007's ultra-close affair in which five cars and nine drivers arrived at the season finale with a mathematical chance of winning the championship.

Vitaphone Racing has slimmed its stable of three Maserati MC12s to two, and champion Thomas Biagi has also departed the team. In his absence, team boss Michael Bartels will team up with Andrea Bertolini in the lead car, with GP2 refugee Xandi Negrao joining Miguel Ramos in the second. JMB will field the only other Maserati in the field.
