Bull in the streets of Cape Town
"South Africa has a rich Formula One history and maybe we can stimulate a future world champion who is watching in the crowd today. Formula One has been a global shop front for emerging cities, but South Africa is already on the map," – David Coulthard
This past weekend, South Africans saw David Coulthard visiting Cape Town and he brought the Aston Martin Red Bull Racing Formula One car along for the trip. Darling Street was closed between the Grand Parade, City Hall and the Castle to create a long urban track for the Formula One car.
Fans saw the 13-time Grand Prix winner take the quadruple constructors and drivers championship-winning car reach a top speed of close to 300 km/h and performing doughnuts for the crowd’s entertainment.
