[[File:Globie image.jpg|thumb|[[Globie]].]][[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's reformation. The World Grand Prix is the target of a plot to sabotage the race, directed by the evil weapons designer [[Professor Zündapp|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.
[[Globie]] is the official mascot of the World Grand Prix.  


The events were covered by [[Racing Sports Network|RSN]], and the races were commentated by the commentators [[Brent Mustangburger]], [[Darrell Cartrip]] and [[David Hobbscap]].

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 hiden electromagnetic pulse emittor. 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's engine caused him to spin, and caused multi-car pileup. Lightning McQueen won the race. At the last race in London, the race was suspended because [[Tow Mater|Mater]] entered the track and brought Lightning 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.

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.
