Red Bull to charge down Orchard Rd 09/03/11 - by: Low Lin Fhoong - channelnewsasia.com

SINGAPORE: Orchard Road, home to fashion-forward boutiques and malls, will witness high octane speed of a different kind when Red Bull Racing's F1 showcar speeds through Singapore's shopping belt on April 24, five months ahead of the Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix.   Former driving ace David Coulthard will demonstrate short sprints, burnouts, donuts and engine breaks in a one-hour event along a 1-kilometre stretch from Orchard Link junction to the Buyong Road intersection near the Istana.   The 39-year-old Briton has driven with Red Bull Racing, Williams and McLaren in a career spanning 14 years, winning 13 Grands Prix titles and finishing on the podium 62 times, before retiring in 2008. The 2010 World Championship team's showcar last featured in Singapore in February 2008 as a special five-minute item in the Chingay Parade, months ahead of the inaugural 2008 Singapore Grand Prix. And the action will not be limited to Singapore shores, with the Red Bull Racing showcar expected to speed through Kuala Lumpur's bustling shopping street -- Jalan Bukit Bintang -- on April 3. This is the first time that the Austrian energy drink company is bringing the showcar event to Malaysia, with the F1 Malaysian Grand Prix to be hosted at Sepang a week later. More than 100,000 spectators are expected to get up close to the action in both cities, which will be closed for the Red Bull Speed Street event. Safety measures and precautions will be implemented to ensure the safety of the audience. Touted as a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to experience the adrenaline, power and speed of a Formula 1 car up close, the event has featured in locations worldwide, including Bueno Aires (Argentina), Pamplona (Spain) and Bangkok. back to Home Related news
