A1GP World Cup of Motorsport has been given FIA approval to hold A1GP Mexico City on the weekend of the 22-24 May 2009, thus making this the eighth and final round of season four.

This popular event, which has been included on the A1GP calendar since season two, has never before been the series decider.

After receiving the news A1GP CEO, Pete da Silva, said: "It is very important for the series to go back to Mexico City, especially as it won the award for being the best run event of Season Three. The fans have always given us a warm welcome, and it will be great to let them witness the finale of what has been a very exciting first season for the A1GP Powered by Ferrari cars."

The approval is subject to the completion of FIA stipulated track changes that will allow the granting of the necessary licence. This work is due to start soon.

A1GP has visited Mexico every season with Fundidora Park in Monterrey being the track used in Season One and Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City in seasons two and three.
