The '''World Grand Prix''' (Japanese: '''ワールドグランプリ'''/ Italian: '''Mondiale Grand Prix''') is an international racing competition which is at the center of ''[[Cars 2]]''. The competition was created and organized by [[Miles Axlerod|Sir Miles Axlerod]] as a promotion of his new "clean alternative fuel" [[Allinol]]. The competition consists of three races: The first one in [[Tokyo]], [[Japan]]; the second one in [[Porto Corsa]], [[Italy]]; and the last one in [[London]], [[United Kingdom]].  


[[File:Globie image.jpg|thumb|[[Globie?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Globie]], the World Grand Prix's official mascot.|link=file:Globie_image.jpg?SURFLY_TAB_PREFIX=_surfly_tab0%3Fso%3Dsearch]][[Globie?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Globie]] is the official mascot of the World Grand Prix.
A notable participant in the race is [[Lightning McQueen]]. The competition unites the 12 best racers of all race types to determine the world's fastest car (although there were only 11 competitors).  


Race cars from all racing categories were invited to the event, but there was no winner, as the final race was interrupted by a series of anomalies that finally ended in [[Miles Axlerod?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Miles Axlerod]]'s reformation. The World Grand Prix is the target of a plot to sabotage the race, directed by the evil weapons designer [[Professor Zündapp?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Professor Z]]. The British master spy [[Finn McMissile?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Finn McMissile]] discovered the conspiracy and organized himself to stop it. At the end of the movie, it was discovered that the WGP was used by [[Miles Axlerod?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Axlerod]] to execute his evil plan of making alternative fuels look bad. It's unknown if the WGP continued after [[Cars 2?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Cars 2]].
[[Globie]] is the official mascot of the World Grand Prix.

In the first WGP, the races were sabotaged. In the first race, [[Acer?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Acer]] and [[Grem?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Grem]] blew the engines of [[Miguel Camino?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Miguel Camino]], [[Rip Clutchgoneski?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Rip Clutchgoneski]] and [[Max Schnell?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Max Schnell]] with a electromagnetic pulse emitter. After an error of [[Lightning McQueen?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Lightning McQueen]], [[Francesco Bernoulli?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Francesco Bernoulli]] won the first race in [[Tokyo?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Tokyo]].
In the first WGP, the races were sabotaged. In the first race, [[Acer]] and [[Grem]] blew the engines of [[Miguel Camino]], [[Rip Clutchgoneski]] and [[Max Schnell]] with a electromagnetic pulse emitter. After an error of [[Lightning McQueen]], [[Francesco Bernoulli]] won the first race in [[Tokyo]].


At the second race in [[Porto Corsa?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Porto Corsa]], three other engines were blasted, those being of [[Carla Veloso?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Carla Veloso]], [[Nigel Gearsley?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Nigel Gearsley]] and [[Shu Todoroki?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Shu Todoroki]]. The explosion of [[Shu Todoroki?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Shu Todoroki]]'s engine caused him to spin, and caused a multi-car pileup. [[Lightning McQueen?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Lightning McQueen]] won the race. At the last race in [[London?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|London]], the race was suspended because [[Tow Mater?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Mater]] entered the track and brought [[Lightning McQueen?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Lightning McQueen]] with him off the course. After the surprise, [[Miles Axlerod?SURFLY TAB PREFIX= surfly tab0?so=search|Miles Axlerod]] was arrested due to the whole event being controlled by him in an attempt to twist people's opinion of alternative fuel.

The competition was created and organized by Sir Miles Axlerod as a promotion of his new "clean alternative fuel" Allinol. The competition consists of three races: The first one in Tokyo, Japan; the second one in Porto Corsa, Italy; and the last one in London, United Kingdom. A notable participant in the race is Lightning McQueen. The competition unites the 12 best racers of all race types to determine the world's fastest car (although there were only 11 competitors). Globie is the official mascot of the World Grand Prix. Race cars from all racing categories were invited to the event, but there was no winner, as the final race was interrupted by a series of anomalies that finally ended in Miles Axlerod's reformation. The World Grand Prix is the target of a plot to sabotage the race, directed by the evil weapons designer Professor Z. The British master spy Finn McMissile discovered the conspiracy and organized himself to stop it. At the end of the movie, it was discovered that the WGP was used by Axlerod to execute his evil plan of making alternative fuels look bad. It's unknown if the WGP continued after Cars 2. The events were covered by RSN, and the races were commentated by the commentators Brent Mustangburger, Darrell Cartrip, and David Hobbscap.

Season Histories

2011

In the first WGP, the races were sabotaged. In the first race, Acer and Grem blew the engines of Miguel Camino, Rip Clutchgoneski and Max Schnell with a electromagnetic pulse emitter. After an error of Lightning McQueen, Francesco Bernoulli won the first race in Tokyo.

At the second race in Porto Corsa, three other engines were blasted, those being of Carla Veloso, Nigel Gearsley and Shu Todoroki. The explosion of Shu Todoroki's engine caused him to spin, and caused a multi-car pileup involving Miguel Camino, Max Schnell, Raoul ÇaRoule and Rip Clutchgoneski. Lightning McQueen won the race. At the last race in London, the race was suspended because Mater entered the track and brought Lightning McQueen with him off the course. After the surprise, Miles Axlerod was arrested due to the whole event being controlled by him in an attempt to twist people's opinion of alternative fuel.

World Grand Prix Events

Raceways

The World Grand Prix has three Grand Prix races. They take place on three urban circuits around the world and have a similar layout. Indeed, each track consists of fast straightaways, technical turns and a dirt section. This fair layout allows all drivers to be on an equal footing.

Grand Prix
Grand Prix Circuit Country Laps Turns
1 Tokyo Grand Prix Tokyo Street Circuit Japan 52 34
2 File:Włochy.png Porto Corsa Grand Prix File:Włochy.png Porto Corsa Street Circuit File:Włochy.png Italy 60 49
3 London Grand Prix London Street Circuit United Kingdom -

It was originally planned to have two more circuits. The Paris Street Circuit in France and the Black Forest Street Circuit in Germany. However, they were cancelled.

After the disaster at the London Grand Prix, a Radiator Springs Grand Prix was organized in Radiator Springs, but was not officially part of the World Grand Prix even if the rules and racers were the same.
