As it says in the title really, I would have put it in the youtube thread but I thought it would be more relevant over here in GG.

Nice little video of Coulthard giving an F1 car beans around streets in Austin, Texas and then around the as-yet-unbuilt new Formula circuit in the same location.

Stick it in HD and turn it up.

Looks nice in 1080p - never seen an F1 car on gravel before. Great vid!

Coulthard seemed to spend quite a bit of time in/on it during his career

I didn't find it, you can thank StumbleUpon for that

Enjoyed that

[Fort Jefferson]

Enjoyed it, but they must have dubbed the sound on after, there is no way an F1 would sound like that on a loose surface.

That was fantastic yeehah.

I guess Red Bull removed the special "feature" that lets the front wing flex at speed, otherwise it would have turned into a plough and just stopped dead!

Awesome, going to that is on my list of things to do next year!

I can imagine the engine engineers were impressed by the amount of dust and rubbish going into that airbox!

Redbull = mental = I wonder if they have any jobs going.

Not sure the F1 car did much driving to the top...

What you see in the video is a 2008 car (-:

On slicks? I assumed they'd have used a treaded tyre.

[Streps]

It's a RB1/STR1 hybrid.made up to look current.
Note the V10,

Extremely pleased RedBull are doing this
