When Red Bull celebrate, they do it in style…

Red Bull wanted to celebrate winning the Formula One Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships for the fourth consecutive year, so they asked David Coulthard to perform some doughnuts on top of the world’s fourth largest hotel.

Sure, why not? Skip to 2:05 to catch the action.

Speaking about the stunt, David said: “When Red Bull first suggested the idea to me I said ‘why not?’

“I like getting involved with anything that pushes the boundaries and it’s what Red Bull stands for. I think this will produce fantastic, iconic shots in an amazing town and I’m really privileged to be part of it.”

David performed the stunt in an Infiniti Red Bull Racing 750bhp Formula One car, 210 metres above sea level. Here he is having a gander over the side… brave man.
