Last Monday (June 11, 2012), Formula 1 driver Sebastian Vettel became the first driver to take a preview lap at Grand Prix of America at Port Imperial Course in a Infiniti G37 IPL Coupe which included doing a few donuts along side team ambassador David Coulthard who was in another Infiniti G37 IPL Coupe.

Below is a picture of Sebastian Vettel's Red Bull Racing Formula 1 racecar at Port Imperial and a b-roll of footage (four and a half minutes) featuring some of the event.

Personally as a Formula 1 fan, I'm not only looking forward to later this years Grand Prix of the United States in Austin, Texas, but to the upcoming Grand Prix of America next June 2013 on the 3.2-mile course that will be run on existing streets in Port Imperial, Weehawken and West New York, along the Hudson River and at the top of the Palisades, with the New York City skyline as the backdrop. Hopefully this will be a cool race to watch on television.


Note: The footage is good, the sound is terrible and at times, doesn't work at all.
