Red Bull Formula 1 at Killarney Gardens Cape Town


The Red Bull Racing F1 Show Car event has moved to Killarney Race Track to better accommodate the crowd capacity and showcase the true potential of the Formula One car at the home of the Western Province Motor Club.

On 1 January 1960, the Cape Grand Prix was held at Killarney. This was the first time the track and the Western Cape had a taste of Formula One. Now, for the first time in over 50 years, Red Bull Racing brought F1 back to Killarney.

Driving the Formula One car in Cape Town on Sunday 27 March is Swiss native, Neel Jani, who started his racing career at the age of 12 and has since joined Red Bull Racing as an F1 test driver assisting Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber to qualify P1 and P2 at the Melbourne GP in 2010.

The Red Bull Racing Formula One Team  ran for their first time in Cape Town as they took to the track for a day of F1 speed and sound!

Waiting  to see the F1 Car in action was delayed by almost an hour and in the scorching heat the crowd forgot all once Neel Jani entered onto the track. Drifting by male and female drivers then stunned the crowed to fulfill a perfect race track day.
