WHATTA STUNT!

Red Bull officially walked away with the F1 constructor’s and driver’s championship for the fourth year in a row. In order to mark the occasion, the team decided to do something special. It let David Coulthard loose on the Burj Al Arab helipad in an F1 car. Just so you know, the Burj Al Arab is the world’s fourth-tallest hotel, and the helipad (which doubles as a tennis court) sits 689 feet above the salt water below.

DOUBLE WHAMMY

Seen at the road was a Toyota Fortuner and a PUJ blocking a lane. The jeepney clearly made a mistake, but the Fortuner followed suit. Who gets your vote as the worse road jerk? (Photo by Johannes Concordia)

Vettel crushes competition… again!

Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel scored his seventh consecutive victory and his 11th of 2013 in Abu Dhabi on Sunday evening, after taking the lead from pole-sitting team mate Mark Webber at the start.

As the Australian made a slow getaway, Vettel and Mercedes’ Nico Rosberg were able to swarm past on either side of his RB9, and thereafter Webber spent his time fending off Lotus’s Romain Grosjean (who pushed Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton down to fifth), coping with a minor KERS overheating problem, and then hunting down Rosberg. Eventually he was able to overtake the German on the 20th lap to make it a Red Bull one-two, but Rosberg kept him honest to the flag as Grosjean likewise kept the pressure on the Mercedes. Vettel, however, was half a minute up the road.
