Mumbai: Mumbai`s Formula One fans are in for
a treat as ace driver David Coulthard would drive down the
Rajiv Gandhi Bandra-Worli Sea Link at blinding speed in a Red
Bull racing car on October 11.
The former F1 British driver was originally scheduled to
perform innovative F1 show runs, including revving up to
speeds of 320 kmph and doing 360 degree spins, in the "Red
Bull Speed Link" last month before it got postponed due to the
swine flu epidemic, a media release said today.
The 38-year-old Scot, a consultant this year with Red
Bull after 14 active years on the F1 circuit, has won 13 Grand
Prix races and finished on the podium on 62 occasions while
representing Williams, McLaren and Red Bull - in that order.
Coulthard is the leading British driver, in terms of
points scored (535 from 247 races starting 1994), in F1
history.
Ahead of this show-piece drive by Coulthard, Red Bull has
scheduled a five-day line-up of events for the public, ranging
from technical assembly of the car and firing up of its engine
to showcasing the F1 car at two city malls, in Malad and
Mulund, the release added.
