Yes thats true. The current A1GP programme does not draw resources from Ferrari's F1 programme.
Was pointing out the political angle. A few years ago who would have guessed that Ferrari would've wanted to be involved in a big way with A1GP even if it was profit driven. The Ferrari brand is incredibly valuable and Ferrari's branding/marketing dept have been very careful with it's use.
Some speculate the F1 Spygate scandal was a catalyst but who knows..
