We typically share videos shot at the N\u00fcrburgring with camouflaged prototypes of future road-going models but this one is quite different and perhaps even more entertaining. Not only does it feature two Formula 1 cars but also a four-time F1 champion as well as a 13-time Grand Prix winner. Sebastian Vettel was reunited with his RB7, Red Bull Racing’s championship-winning car from 2011 when the team secured both the drivers\u2019 and constructors’ titles.<\/p>\n
As for David Coulthard, he got behind the wheel of the RB8 used by Red Bull Racing in the 2012 season when Vettel grabbed another title while the team was yet again first in the constructors\u2019 championship. The Scottish driver is a former Red Bull driver himself, having raced for the team from 2005 through 2008 when he retired from F1 at the end of that season.<\/p>\n
Those of you expecting to see a full lap of the N\u00fcrburgring at full throttle are in for a disappointment because the ex-F1 drivers didn’t push the cars to their maximum potential. In addition, we can see the Red Bull duo being escorted by a previous-generation BMW M4 Coupe serving as the safety car. Nevertheless, it’s a joy to watch the masters at work as they drive an F1 car on one of the most difficult circuits in the world. The soundtrack is a bonus since it reminds us of the V8 era that sadly ended after the 2013 season.<\/p>\n
