When Nur Ali, Pakistan’s first professional racing driver, takes part in next month’s inaugural A1 GP series in Britain, a place on the podium is not his only mission. ‘I want to drive for Pakistan and for its youth,’ said Texas-based Ali. Driving was Ali’s childhood passion and he used to navigate for his father when they lived in Europe during his childhood. For the race at the famed Brands Hatch circuit in southern England, Ali will compete against strong teams.
