In early October, Red Bull Racing held a demo run in Johannesburg with David Coulthard, before the former Formula 1 driver put the 2011 RB7 through a few laps at the Kyalami circuit, which last hosted the South African Grand Prix in 1993. took place.
The championship team made a short video about David’s races, and as always it was shot with the usual Red Bull humor. But this time the shots clearly go beyond the usual advertising for a carbonated drinks manufacturer. The fact is that at the end of the video David says the phrase: “Fantastic! Racers will love this track!”
Considering that Formula 1 has recently started talking again about holding a Grand Prix on the African continent, and that the Kyalami circuit has started the process of obtaining an FIA Grade 1 license, which will entitle it care to organize Formula 1 stages, the release of the video today could potentially be one of the steps to prepare the racing community for the return to the South African Grand Prix calendar.
