Contents

In February, 2009, series organisers Coloni Motorsport announced that the first-generation A1 Grand Prix chassis, the Lola B05/52, would be introduced into the championship to replace the previous Lola B02/50 model. It was also announced that online gambling site PartyPoker.com will become the title sponsor of the series for the next three years.

As a result of the sponsorship deal, the winner of the drivers' championship won a free season in the GP2 Series for 2010. It also allowed them to participate in the 2009–10 GP2 Asia Series and their official testing sessions on 23 and 24 October, less than a week after winning this title. Will Bratt claimed that honour, after his second place in the final race broke a tie with Marco Bonanomi as both drivers finished level on points and victories.
