Martin Brundle's driving school

I tend to be a huge sucker for racing related European tv (maybe its something to do with haveing to watch Speed TV's drunk-ass trio of David Hobbs, Steve Machette, and Bob "I miss ice skating" Varsha) and these are particularly sweet clips. ITV produces these "F1 Insight" pieces each grand prix weekend and they really do an amazing job of explaining some of why F1 is so sweet. I see these as a model of how Formula One could work to attract a larger audience, and its no suprise that the team making it happen is Red Bull. Their forward thinking attitude toward marketing the sport may be F1's saving grace.

So watch as Martin Brundle takes you for a ride in the RB1, in the wet, at Silverstone. I want his job, but then I guess you need to be an ex-F1 driver for that.

Note: this post may be particularly helpful in teaching certain Crested Buttians how to keep their car on the limit, not over it...
