Video: Sébastien Ogier tests the Red Bull RB7

Always supported by Red Bull après son passage au sein du Team M-Sport de Malcolm Wilson, Sébastien Ogier had the opportunity to slip into the seat of a F1, on the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria.

Like Sebastian Loeb in his time, the world rally champion changed disciplines for the duration of a drive with, for the former Volkswagen driver, the possibility of driving the RB7 which won the world title in 2011 with Sebastian Vettel. Ogier was accompanied in this discovery by David Coulthard and had first made his mark with a Formula Renault 3.5.

I am 33 years old. As a child, Ayrton Senna was my idol and, of course, I dreamed of having the chance to try this type of car one day.

“There are some challenges for Sébastien to arrive and drive a Grand Prix car for the first time, continued Coulthard. En rally, you are used to a lot more space in the cockpit, whereas with a car Formula 1, it is much more compact and the environment is “hostile”. Physically, your senses are attacked much more when you reach 4.5 G."
